Robotic radical prostatectomy in kidney transplant recipients: A propensity-matched cohort study.
Article in BJUI compass, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: We aim to evaluate the perioperative, oncologic, and survival outcomes of RARP in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) and compare to propensity-matched controls. Patients and Methods: This was a single-institution retrospective cohort study using the Northwestern Enterprise Data Warehouse. We identified eight KTRs who underwent RARP from January 2018-September 2024 and propensity matched them 1:4 with non-KTR controls using age, body mass index, and pathologic Gleason score. Outcomes were assessed using Wilcoxon rank sum and Fisher's exact tests. Overall survival was analysed using Kaplan-Meier and univariable Cox proportional hazards models. Results: All RARPs in KTRs were completed robotically. Median time from kidney transplant to RARP was 11.1 years (8.9-15.1). KTRs had higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (9.5 vs 4; Conclusion: RARP in kidney transplant recipients is feasible and safe for experienced surgeons, with comparable surgical and oncologic outcomes as compared to matched controls. Higher UTI rates suggest modified catheter removal strategies could be considered.
