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

Purpose: To examine the association between the Materials and Methods: Patients who underwent RARPs from 2016 to 2018 in two institutions with ≥1-year postoperative follow-up were included. The primary outcomes were time to urinary continence recovery. Surgical videos were independently assessed by 3 blinded raters using the validated Results: 121 RARP performed by 23 surgeons with various experience levels were included. The median follow-up was 24 months (95% CI 20 - 28 months). The median time to continence recovery was 7.3 months (95% CI 4.7 - 9.8 months). After adjusting for patient age, higher scores of certain DART domains, specifically Conclusions: Technical skill scores of neurovascular bundle dissection vary among surgeons and correlate with urinary continence recovery. Unveiling the specific robotic dissection skillsets which impact patient outcomes has the potential to focus surgical training.
