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: Obesity is a well-established risk factor of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), however the impact of obesity on surgical outcomes for racial and ethnic minority patients with RCC is unclear. This study investigated whether a higher body mass index (BMI) or obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m Methods: In this single-center cross-sectional study, medical records of patients who underwent partial or radical nephrectomy between 2010 and 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess associations of BMI and perioperative outcomes [ischemia time, estimated blood loss (EBL), and length of hospital stay]. Results: A total of 432 patients, including 49.8% non-Hispanic White (NHW), 35.0% Hispanic, and 6.9% American Indian (AI) patients, were included. Median [interquartile range (IQR)] BMI was 30.2 (26.3-35.2) kg/m Conclusions: In this study, obesity increased likelihood of worse perioperative outcomes, and the associations varied based on race and ethnicity and neighborhood-level socioeconomic factors.
