Effectiveness of Early Radical Cystectomy for High-Risk Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 7 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
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare perioperative and oncological outcomes of upfront vs. delayed early radical cystectomy (eRC) for high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (HR-NMIBC). Methods: All consecutive HR-NMIBC patients who underwent eRC between 2001 and 2020 were retrospectively included and divided into upfront and delayed groups, according to the receipt or not of BCG. Perioperative outcomes were evaluated and the impact of upfront vs. delayed eRC on pathological upstaging, defined as ≥pT2N0 disease at final pathology, was assessed using multivariable logistic regression. Recurrence-free (RFS), cancer-specific (CSS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between upfront and delayed eRC groups using inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW)-adjusted Cox model. Results: Overall, 184 patients received either upfront (n = 87; 47%) or delayed (n = 97; 53%) eRC. No difference was observed in perioperative outcomes between the two treatment groups (all p > 0.05). Pathological upstaging occurred in 55 (30%) patients and upfront eRC was an independent predictor (HR = 2.65; 95% CI = (1.23−5.67); p = 0.012). In the IPTW-adjusted Cox analysis, there was no significant difference between upfront and delayed eRC in terms of RFS (HR = 1.31; 95% CI = (0.72−2.39); p = 0.38), CSS (HR = 1.09; 95% CI = (0.51−2.34); p = 0.82) and OS (HR = 1.19; 95% CI = (0.62−2.78); p = 0.60). Conclusion: our results suggest similar perioperative outcomes between upfront and delayed eRC, with an increased risk of upstaging after upfront eRC that did impact survival, as compared to delayed eRC.
