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

The holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is a widely accepted and reliable treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasias. In developing countries where HoLEP surgery has only recently been introduced, its popularity is steadily increasing. In our case, the patient's history of HoLEP and the image of the irregular mass extending from the anterior bladder wall into the lumen were initially misdiagnosed as bladder cancer. In our review of the English literature, we were not able to find any cases similar to ours, in which the residual prostatic tissue following a HoLEP mimicked a bladder cancer.
