Comparison of minimally invasive versus open pelvic organ-preserving radical cystectomy in female patients with bladder cancer: a multicenter propensity score matching analysis.
Article in World journal of urology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeTo compare the perioperative and oncologic outcomes between minimally invasive pelvic organ-preserving radical cystectomy (MIPOPRC) and open pelvic organ-preserving radical cystectomy (open POPRC) among female patients with bladder cancer (BCa).
methodsWe identified female patients who underwent POPRC for BCa at three centers between January 2006 and April 2018. Female patients who underwent open POPRC were matched with those who underwent MIPOPRC using 1:1 propensity score (PS) matching. The patient demographics and perioperative and oncologic outcomes were evaluated for the comparison between MIPOPRC and open POPRC.
resultsAmong the 158 patients enrolled, 83 patients underwent MIPOPRC, and 75 underwent open POPRC. A total of 60 MIPOPRC and 60 open POPRC patients were matched successfully. The cancer-specific survival (CSS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) did not differ significantly in the propensity score-weighted cohort (p = 0.297 and p = 0.600, respectively). Subgroup analysis by age and pathologic stage in the matched cohort revealed that CSS and RFS were with no differences among all subgroups. Moreover, multivariable Cox regression analyses showed that the surgical approach (MIPOPRC vs open POPRC) was not a predictor of CSS (p = 0.250).
conclusionMIPOPRC was non-inferior to open POPRC in terms of oncologic outcomes among female patients. MIPOPRC could be technically feasible in selected female patients with BCa.
