Partial nephrectomy and positive surgical margin, oncologic outcomes and predictors: a 15-year single institution experience.
Article in Central European journal of urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe aim of this article was to compare oncological outcomes after partial nephrectomy between patients with positive (PSM) and negative (NSM) surgical margins. MATERIAL AND
methodsIn this retrospective study, the data of 733 patients who underwent partial nephrectomy with diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) were analyzed. A total of 80 patients from the NSM group were matched to 42 PSM patients. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate freedom from local disease recurrence and metastatic progression and overall survival. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the predictors for recurrence/metastasis.
resultsThe mean age was 58.4 ±11.4 years (range: 29 to 82). Median follow-up was 24 months (IQ
conclusionsAlthough tumor recurrence was more prevalent in positive surgical margin patients who underwent partial nephrectomy, there were no differences in overall survival between the two groups. Therefore, active surveillance against further surgery would be a proper option after finding the tumor-involved margins.
