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

Background: En bloc removal of the kidney with tumor thrombus excision in a multidisciplinary team remains the standard treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with tumor thrombus extension. In order to minimize the hemodynamic impact of the surgical blood loss, intraoperative cell salvage (IOCS) techniques can decrease the need for allogeneic blood and prevent blood transfusion related complications. Objective: In this article, we evaluated the safety of IOCS during radical nephrectomy with inferior vena cava thrombectomy under cardiopulmonary bypass with or without deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. Design and method: In this retrospective comparative multicenter analysis, clinical characteristics of 27 consecutive patients who underwent surgery with or without IOCS between 2012 and 2022 in three referral care units were collected into a database. The need for an allogenic blood transfusion (ABT) was also recorded, defined as any transfusion that occurred either intraoperatively or during the hospital stay. Results: The need for ABT in the cell saver arm was significantly smaller due to the reinfusion of rescued blood ( Conclusion: Transfusion of autologous blood is safe and can be using during nephrectomy and thrombectomy for advanced RCC.
