Socioeconomic disparities in survival of patients with non-muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma.
Article in World journal of urology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeLimited data are available on the impact of socioeconomic disparities on the survival of patients with non-muscle invasive urothelial carcinoma (NMIBC).
methodsWe analyzed the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database to review the effects of sex, race, location, and socioeconomic factors on the survival of patients with NMIBC. We calculated 5-year overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) using the log-rank test. The impact of socioeconomic factors on OS and CSS was analyzed using the Cox proportional hazards model adjusted for clinical characteristics. Hazard ratios (HR) and survival rates were reported with 95% confidence intervals (CI).
resultsAnalysis of 3831 patients showed that older age was associated with worse OS (HR 1.08 [1.08-1.09]) and CSS (HR 1.05 [1.04-1.06]). Women and men had similar OS (HR 0.91 [0.82-1.01]) and CSS (HR 1.12 [0.95-1.32]). Black patients had worse OS (HR 1.33 [1.08-1.62] and CSS [HR 1.54 [1.13-2.05]) than their White counterparts. Patients with an annual household income below $40,000 had worse outcomes compared to those with income above $70,000 for both OS (HR 1.79 [1.37-2.33]) and CSS (HR 1.924 [1.26-2.89]).
conclusionsThere were no gender differences in survival outcomes of NMIBC. Older age, Black, American Indian/Alaskan Native, and patients with a household income below $40,000 appear to have worse survival. However, the area of residence did not seem to affect patient survival.
