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

Introduction: A case of muscle-invasive bladder cancer and renal granulomatosis that developed after intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin therapy, in which a combination of neoadjuvant gemcitabine-cisplatin and anti-tuberculosis therapy was safely administered, and radical cystectomy was ultimately performed, is reported. Case Presentation: A 64-year-old man with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer underwent transurethral resection and intravesical Bacillus Calmette-Guérin therapy every time bladder cancer recurred. However, the patient developed left renal granulomatosis during treatment. Anti-tuberculosis therapy was prioritized since there was no bladder cancer progression. However, local bladder cancer progression was observed during the anti-tuberculosis therapy. To successfully cure the renal granulomatosis and suppress tumor progression, neoadjuvant gemcitabine-cisplatin was combined with anti-tuberculosis therapy for 2 months, followed by radical cystectomy. There were no gemcitabine-cisplatin complications and no renal granulomatosis recurrence during combination therapy. Conclusion: Combination of gemcitabine-cisplatin and anti-tuberculosis therapy was possible for a patient with bladder cancer when Bacillus Calmette-Guérin infection was under control.
