Retrospective Evaluation of a Single Surgeon's Learning Curve of Robot-Assisted Radical Cystectomy with Intracorporeal Urinary Diversion via Ileal Conduit.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Robot-assisted radical cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion (iRARC) is increasingly being performed instead of open surgery. A criticism of this technique is the long learning curve, but limited data are available on this topic. At our center, the transition from open radical cystectomy (ORC) to iRARC began in May 2017. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the initial 53 cases of robot-assisted cystectomy with intracorporeal urinary diversion via ileal conduit, which were performed by one single surgeon. The patients were divided into four consecutive groups according to the surgeon's increasing experience, and perioperative parameters were analyzed as a surrogate for the learning curve. Over the course of the learning curve, a decline in median operation time from 415 to 361 min (
