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

Nonurothelial bladder cancer is rare, and there is no consensus regarding optimal systemic therapy. Even less well-defined is the role for surgical resection of oligometastatic sites that progress despite systemic therapy. Here, we describe the case of a 65-year-old woman who underwent radical cystectomy for locally advanced pure squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC) and subsequently developed two substantial metastatic lung lesions shortly after surgery. After her disease did not respond to platinum-based doublet chemotherapy and immunotherapy, hospice was considered, given her declining performance status. However, she underwent a pulmonary bilobectomy, which resulted in a durable complete response lasting over 2 years. This case demonstrates a potential role for surgical intervention in the management of metastatic SqCC of the bladder.
