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
Objectives: The objective of the study was to determine the effect of variant histology on pathological outcomes and survival in patients operated for the upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Methods: Data of 128 patients who were operated for UTUC between 2001 and 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with pure urothelial carcinoma and patients with variant histology were compared in terms of demographics, pathological outcomes, and survival. Results: The mean age of the patients was 65±11 years, female to male ratio was 30/98 and median follow-up period was 26.5 (1-176) months. Variant histology was detected in 14.8% of patients. Variant histology was found to be associated with surgical margin positivity, lymph node metastasis, presence of lymphovascular invasion, high tumor stage and grade (p=0.001, p=0.012, p=0.001, p=0.002, and p=0.009, respectively). Three-year cancer-specific and overall survival rates were 79.6% and 77.3%, respectively. There was no statistically significant relationship between variant histology with cancer-specific and overall survival (p=0.514 and p=0.515, respectively). Conclusion: Variant histology of UTUC was found to be associated with locally advanced disease, but its effect on survival could not be demonstrated.
