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 evaluate the influence of detrusor apron preservation on continence in Retzius-sparing Robotic assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP). MATERIALS AND
methodsA prospective study was carried out on patients who underwent RS-RARP at our institute from January 2019 to June 2022. We aimed to identify potential factors that could affect continence, including age, BMI, ISUP Grade Group, bladder neck sparing, fascial plane of dissection, and degree of preservation of the detrusor apron. The detrusor preservation was graded from 0 to 3, where grade 0 the detrusor apron is sacrificed and grade 3 it is complete preservation.
resultThe study included 311 patients. There was a significant correlation between the degree of detrusor preservation and continence at three months, with significance escalating with greater detrusor preservation. The OR for grade 1, grade 2 and grade 3 stood at 3.84 (p = 0.026), 9.83 (p < 0.001) and 16.06 (p = 0.03) respectively. This correlation in the three groups at six months was 29.38 (p < 0.001), 26.57 (p < 0.001), and 17.29 (p = 0.005) respectively, showing an even stronger association with continence recovery. The OR for detrusor apron preservation at 12 months was 21.89 (p = 0.003), 14.21 (p = 0.006), and 6.31 (p = 0.105) respectively. We observed that the association between detrusor apron preservation persisted at 12 months, although the odds ratios (OR) were diminished compared to the six-month periods.
conclusionThe study emphasizes the critical role of the detrusor apron in achieving both early and superior continence rates. Sacrificing the detrusor apron was associated with delayed continence recovery and an increased incidence of incontinence. To achieve good continence with reduced incidence of margin positivity detrusor can be preserved in a graded manner.
