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

objectiveTo improve perioperative outcomes, robot-assisted radical cystectomy has gained increasing interest. This study aimed to assess the detailed perioperative complications of robot-assisted radical cystectomy in elderly aged ≥80 years and compare them with those of non-elderly. MATERIAL AND

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical features of 74 patients who underwent robotassisted radical cystectomy for bladder cancer between September 2018 and September 2021. Perioperative complication was classified by the Clavien-Dindo classification and organ system-based categories. We assessed the relationship between age or Charlson comorbidity index score (≥3 or <3) and the incidence of perioperative complication or rehospitalization rate within 90 days postoperatively.

resultsOf the 74 patients, perioperative complication of all grades and grade ≥IIIa occurred in 54 (73%) and 15 (20%) patients, respectively. The postoperative rehospitalization rate was 20%, and the perioperative mortality rate was 0%. Elderly (n = 20) showed no difference in the incidence of perioperative complication of all grades or grade ≥IIIa compared with non-elderly, and no organ system-based category had a higher incidence in elderly than that in non-elderly. Gastrointestinal tract-related perioperative complication incidence was higher in non-elderly and those with Charlson comorbidity index ≥3 (P = .044, .039, respectively); cardi ovasc ular- relat ed perioperative complication incidence was higher in those with Charlson comorbidity index ≥ 3 (P = .0068).

conclusionThe incidence perioperative complication of robot-assisted radical cystectomy in elderly was not different from those in non-elderly, suggesting that robot-assisted radical cystectomy may be an option for the treatment of bladder cancer in elderly as well as non-elderly.
