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

A 76-year-old man who was diagnosed with urothelial carcinoma (UC) in the bladder diverticulum was referred to our institution. The patient was diagnosed with muscle-invasive bladder cancer, which was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging that showed tumor invasion into the fatty tissue surrounding the diverticulum. After two cycles of neoadjuvant gemcitabine and cisplatin, he underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with pelvic lymph node dissection followed by intracorporeal ileal conduit. The histopathologic diagnosis of the bladder tumor was UC with squamous differentiation and sarcomatoid subtype and ypT3bN0M0 without positive surgical margins. The patient refused any adjuvant therapy. Six months after RARC, the patient visited our institution with a complaint of suddenly occurring generalized pain. Because
