The Comprehensive Complication Index for Assessing Short-Term Complications of Urothelial Carcinoma with Variant Histology: A Patient-Based Study.
Article in Annals of surgical oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe objective is to evaluate the comprehensive complication index (CCI) for the purpose of assessing immediate postoperative complications following radical cystectomy (RC) for urothelial carcinoma with variant histology (VUC). This evaluation aims to quantify the combined surgical morbidity and facilitate a comparison of surgical expertise.
methodsFrom March 2020 to October 2024, we collected clinical data from patients at VUC who underwent RC with urinary diversion. To assess complications occurring within 30 days post RC and their impact on hospital stay duration, the CCI was employed for evaluation purposes. Additionally, our facility utilized cumulative sum control models (CUSUM) to evaluate overall surgical morbidity associated with RC in VUC patients and facilitate intersurgeon comparisons.
resultsThe study involved a total of 80 participants, with 66 individuals (82.5%) experiencing a combined total of 249 complications. The CCI was found to be 22.6, and significant associations were discovered between its increase and factors such as gender, subtype of urinary diversion, procedural approach, and surgeon (p < 0.05). Furthermore, there was an observed correlation between the length of hospital stay and CCI (R
conclusionsThe CCI effectively indicates postoperative complications after VUC with RC, as it exhibits a robust correlation with the duration of hospitalization following surgery. Moreover, the CUSUM-CCI model promptly offers valuable insights into the surgical proficiency of individual surgeons, accurately reflecting their level of expertise.
