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

Urothelial carcinoma in situ represents a high-grade, high-risk form of urothelial cancer which predominantly occurs within the bladder, rarely affecting other structures within the genitourinary system such as the seminal vesicle. Involvement could represent more advanced disease, necessitating more aggressive management. We present a case of CIS involving the entire urinary tract in a renal transplant patient who underwent a complete urinary tract extirpation (CUTE) for BCG-refractory CIS of the bladder. This case is unique, representing the first reported CUTE with malignant involvement of every site in the urinary tract.
