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
Aim: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of urothelial cancer treatment in Ukraine, utilizing population-based data from the National Cancer Registry. The primary goal is to evaluate trends and approaches to therapy, with a focus on overall survival rates in patients with urothelial tumors. Materials and methods: A retrospective cross-sectional analysis was conducted based on the National Cancer Registry, involving 12 698 patients (2008-2020) with urothelial tumors of the upper urinary tract (UTUC) and bladder cancer (BC) who underwent surgical treatment. Demographic indicators, surgical interventions, complications, and survival rates were analyzed. Results: The average age for all patients was 70 years. The number of patients undergoing radical treatment was 1820 (15%) among BC and 573 (59%) among UTUC. The 30-day readmission rate was low for both, with a slightly higher preference for UTUC (2.3 vs. 4.6%). Whereas grade III or higher Cl-Dindo complications were seen in only 0.2% of cases. Notable findings include low frequency of neoadjuvant (7%) and adjuvant chemotherapy (28%) among patients with invasive urothelial carcinomas. Median eGFR for invasive UTUC before and after surgery was 63.2 and 51.4 ml/min, respectively ( Conclusion: The study emphasizes the importance of effective systemic treatments, adherence to treatment guidelines, and the need for multidisciplinary consultations among Ukrainian patients with urothelial cancer.
