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

Background and Objectives: To determine whether 1- versus 2-layer renorrhaphy affects renal function after partial nephrectomy. Methods: A total of 18 patients undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomies for renal tumors at a single center were randomized to 1-layer or 2-layer renorrhaphy. All patients received a running base layer for hemostasis and collecting system closure. The 2-layer renorrhaphy group also underwent cortical closure with running suture, sliding clip method. Demographics and surgical outcomes were collected. Three-dimensional renal models were constructed using semiautomatic segmentation and planimetry pre- and 4 months postsurgery to determine renal volume loss. Welch's t test was used with statistical significance defined as Results: Of the 18 patients included in the study, 10 were randomized to 1-layer and 8 to 2-layer renorrhaphy. Demographic variables were matched. There was no difference in postoperative creatinine at 1 month ( Conclusion: This small, randomized trial found increased creatinine and volume loss after 2-layer cortical renorrhaphy. Omitting cortical renorrhaphy may result in better preservation of renal volume and function.
