1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purpose of reviewHerein we provide a review of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and its ability to assist in the evaluation and surgical management of advanced retroperitoneal, genitourinary tumors. RECENT

findingsAdvanced retroperitoneal tumors such as advanced renal cell carcinoma, bulky retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy associated with advanced testicular carcinoma, large adrenal tumors, and retroperitoneal sarcomas can invade, compress, or distort vascular anatomy making surgical resection challenging and high risk. Intravascular ultrasonography is commonly used by vascular and cardiothoracic surgery to provide a real time assessment of vascular invasion, compression, and aberrant anatomy to assist with pre-operative and/or intraoperative decision-making. However, the application of this technology to assist with cancer surgery has been limited. The use of intravascular ultrasound prior to radical, extirpative, retroperitoneal surgery involving large vessels can aid in the planning and execution of such challenging operations.
