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 landscape of treatment for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer is rapidly changing. A complete and careful transurethral resection is the mainstay of initial treatment and is followed by intravesical therapy in intermediate or high-risk cases. The standard of care is intravesical BCG. Many alternative or additive approaches to this are being explored. We divided this review into three relevant spaces to consider these novel treatment approaches: (1) low-risk disease, for which intravesical therapy is not usually considered, (2) BCG-naïve disease (i.e., considering alternatives to the standard therapy), and (3) BCG-unresponsive disease. We performed a review of published literature and summarized ongoing trials in the United States. Novel approaches that we explored include surgical techniques for resection, alterations in dwell time for intravesical therapy, delivery method and schedule of intravesical therapies, new intravesical therapy agents, and systemic therapies (especially immunotherapy). These are thoroughly outlined throughout this review article, and the numerous modalities being studied demonstrate significant promise for the future treatment of the expanding space of NMIBC.
