Perioperative outcomes and trends of transurethral surgeries for benign prostatic hyperplasia in octogenarians: a comprehensive analysis using the NSQIP database (2011-2022).

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
introductionAdvances in health care have resulted in an increasing octogenarian population in the United States. The prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in this subgroup exceeds 70%. This study attempts to evaluate perioperative outcomes of different transurethral techniques in octogenarians and define their utilization trends from 2011 to 2022.
methodsWe extracted data from the American College of Surgeons NSQIP for octogenarian patients who underwent prostatectomy for BPH. Procedures were categorized using CPT codes, and outcomes included postoperative complications, readmission, 30-day reoperation, and utilization trends from 2011 to 2022.
resultsA total of 21,314 octogenarians were included. TURP was the most performed procedure (53.13-71.17%), followed by PVP and HoLEP. HoLEP utilization increased reaching up to 19% by year 2022. Higher American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scores were observed more frequently in the TURP group. HoLEP consistently exhibits the longest operative times. Initially relatively higher transfusion rates for HoLEP decreased to 0% by 2022. Urinary tract infection rates did not significantly differ among the procedures most years.
resultsTURP remained the most performed modality for BPH management in octogenarians amongst NSQIP-participating institutions. However, from 2011 to 2021, the utilization of HoLEP increased nearly by 2.5 folds, from 2.5 to 6.4%.
