Effect of prostate and bony pelvic dimensions measured by preoperative magnetic resonance imaging on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
Article in Journal of robotic surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Bone pelvic dimensions and body habitus may have effects on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). In this study, we examined the effects of body mass index, bone pelvis measurements and prostate measurements on console time (CT), decrease in postoperative hemogram level (DHL) and surgical margin(SM) in patients who underwent RARP for clinically localized prostate cancer in our institution. The data of transperitoneal RARP cases performed by a single surgeon between November 2016 and August 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. It was included in 125 patients who met the study criteria. Bone and soft tissue measurements were made on magnetic resonance imaging T2-weighted imaging in the mid-sagittal and transvers plane. In multivariate linear regression analyzes, only soft tissue width/transverse diameter of the prostate and CT were found to be correlated (p = 0.026). For the DHL, no pelvic dimension and body habitus had a significant association on multivariate linear regression analysis. In multivariate analyzes, a statistically significant difference was found only between pathological Gleason Score and SM (p = 0.008). Although we found statistically significant associations between prostate diameters and pelvic bone measurements and operative difficulties, we believe that further studies are needed to confirm these results. Such information can help identify patients with challenging anatomy and can be used in robotic surgery training to achieve optimal patient outcomes after RARP.
