Robotic-assisted enucleation for renal masses: A comparison of on-clamp and off-clamp approach.
Article in Journal of surgical oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
introductionIn surgically excising renal masses, studies have demonstrated that tumor enucleation is an effective option. However, there is limited literature comparing off-clamp to on-clamp tumor enucleation. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the charts of 189 patients who underwent robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy via tumor enucleation by a single surgeon from March 2012 and April 2022. Patients were stratified based on use of renal hilar clamping intraoperatively. Surgical, oncologic, and renal functional outcomes were captured. Variables were analyzed and compared between the two groups using Student's T-tests and Chi-square tests.
resultsOf 189 procedures analyzed, 124 were performed on-clamp and 65 were performed off-clamp. There were no differences in patient demographics or average length of follow-up. There were no differences in estimated blood loss, complications, or hospital length of stay. Recurrence rates were similar for the two groups. The absolute difference in estimated glomerular filtration rate change between the two groups at time of first follow-up was not significant (p = 0.25).
conclusionsThere is no significant difference in perioperative outcomes such as surgical time, blood loss, or complications between the two groups. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in postoperative kidney function between the two techniques.
