Oncological outcomes of organ-sparing cystectomy versus standard radical cystectomy in male patients diagnosed with bladder cancer.
Article in World journal of urology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo compare the oncological outcomes between standard radical cystectomy (SRC) and organ-sparing cystectomy (OSC) in male patients diagnosed with bladder cancer.
methodsPatients with stage Ta-T3 bladder cancer who underwent OSC or SRC were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2004 and 2015. The association between preoperative factors and the implementation of OSC was analyzed using logistic regression. Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed to balance baseline characteristics between the two groups. Patients' overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Subgroup analyses based on the T stage were also conducted.
resultsA total of 7264 patients were included, with 96.8% (7033 patients) receiving SRC and 3.2% (231 patients) receiving OSC. Patients with higher T stages and high-grade tumors were less likely to undergo OSC. After PSM, OSC was associated with significantly worse OS and CSS than SRC. Subgroup analysis revealed that OSC did not lead to worse OS and CSS in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer and T2 stage patients, but it resulted in significantly worse outcomes in T3 stage patients.
conclusionOur study indicates that OSC is associated with poorer oncological outcomes compared to SRC, particularly in patients with advanced-stage tumors. These findings suggest the need for stringent selection criteria for OSC in bladder cancer patients. Given the negative impact on prognosis, stage T3 should potentially be considered a contraindication for OSC. Further evidence is required to confirm these assertions.
