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

introductionData about the role of chemotherapy in sarcomatoid bladder cancer (SBC) are limited. We addressed the effect of chemotherapy in non-metastatic SBC patients treated with radical cystectomy (RC).

methodsUsing the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2001-2018), we identified 331 patients with non-metastatic muscle-invasive or higher SBC (T

resultsOf 331 SBC patients, 129 (38.9%) were exposed to chemotherapy. The rate of organ-confined stage (T

conclusionsIn non-metastatic SBC treated with RC, the association between chemotherapy and lower CSM is particularly strong in organ-confined stage. A substantially larger cohort would be required to confirm the statistical significance of the recorded protective effect of chemotherapy.
