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

objectiveTo evaluate the long-term oncological outcomes of partial nephrectomy (PN) in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who were clinically staged as clinical T1 (cT1) preoperatively but upstaged to pathological T3a (pT3a) after surgery.

methodsA total of 427 RCC patients postoperatively diagnosed as pT3aN0M0 at Peking University Third Hospital from February 2013 to December 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Among them, 33 cT1 patients upstaged to pT3a RCC received PN (PN group), while 394 non-upstaged pT3a RCC patients underwent radical nephrectomy (RN, RN group). Propensity score matching was performed at a 1 ∶ 1 ratio based on baseline characteristics. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to assess overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and disease-free survival (DFS), with Log-rank tests and Cox regression models for multivariate analysis.

resultsBefore matching, the PN group (

conclusionFor cT1 RCC patients upstaged to pT3a, PN preserves renal function more effectively while achieving com-parable oncological outcomes to RN. RVI, higher Fuhrmann grade, and sarcomatoid differentiation are independent risk factors for pT3N0M0 RCC patients.
