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

backgroundRezūm™ water vapor therapy is a new minimally invasive endoscopic technology for the management and treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. CASE SUMMARY: A 63-year-old male presented to our department with severe dysuria, frequency, urgency, and interrupted stream 2 mo after receiving Rezūm™ therapy. The symptoms were caused by a retained floating emphysematous necrotic sloughed tissue. We also discovered a persistent bacterial infection that was resistant to parenteral antimicrobial therapy. The treatment of the patient included surgical removal of the necrotic tissue.

conclusionDespite the good safety profile and minimal adverse events related to Rezūm™ therapy, major complications can still occur.
