Introduction of salvage prostatectomy in Denmark: the initial experience.
Article in BMC research notes, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo introduce salvage prostatectomy in Denmark. Prior to this, no national curative treatment for recurrent prostate cancer following radiation therapy existed in Denmark. This pilot study represent our initial experiences and the feasibility of performing salvage robot-assisted radical prostatectomy for true local, high-risk recurrence after initial therapy with external beam radiation for high-risk prostate cancer.
resultsFive patients underwent sRARP between April 2020 and July 2021. All patients were discharged within 48 h and no major complications were observed within 3 months. All patients had unmeasurable PSA (< 0.1 ng/ml) at follow-up 6 months after surgery. One patient with longer follow-up than 6 months experienced biochemical recurrence. At 3-months follow-up all patients reported considerable incontinence, at 6-month follow-up, pad usage decreased to 1 or 2 pads daily. Based on our initial results, the idea to introduce sRARP as a nationwide option remains and further patients will be included to establish the true role of sRARP in patients with recurrence after primary radiotherapy for PCa.
