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

Introduction: The bladder exstrophy-epispadias complex is a rare congenital disease. Urothelial carcinomas rarely occur in patients with this disease, and there have been few reports on its treatment. Case presentation: We report the case of a 44-year-old man with a hemorrhage from the external urethral meatus. He was diagnosed with bladder exstrophy-epispadias complex and underwent urinary diversion with substitution cystoplasty and Mitrofanoff appendicovesicostomy. Because computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging suggested invasive bladder carcinoma in the defunctionalized bladder, we performed a cystectomy. The patient was diagnosed with urothelial carcinoma with glandular differentiation. One month after the surgery, nivolumab adjuvant chemotherapy was administered. The patient showed no signs of recurrence or metastasis after the treatment. Conclusion: This is the first case of adjuvant nivolumab therapy for urothelial carcinoma with the bladder exstrophy-epispadias complex.
