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

The currently available EORTC, CUETO and EAU2021 risk stratifications were originally developed to predict recurrence and progression in non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). However, they have not been validated to differentiate between high-grade (HG) and low-grade (LG) recurrence-free survival (RFS), which are distinct events with specific implications. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of available risk models and identify additional risk factors for HG RFS and PFS among NMIBC patients treated with Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG). We retrospectively included 171 patients who underwent transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT), of whom 73 patients (42.7%) experienced recurrence and 29 (17%) developed progression. Initially, there were 21 low-grade and 52 high-grade recurrences. EORTC2006, EORTC2016 and CUETO recurrence scoring systems lacked accuracy in the prediction of HG RFS (C-index 0.63/0.55/0.59, respectively). EAU2021 risk stratification, EORTC2006, EORTC2016, and CUETO progression scoring systems demonstrated low to moderate accuracy (C-index 0.59/0.68/0.65/0.65) in the prediction of PFS. In the multivariable analysis, T1HG at repeat TURBT (HR = 3.17
