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

Objective: (1) To examine 10-yr outcomes of Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy (RARC) with Intracorporeal Ileal Conduit (ICIC) performed by international clinical fellows within a 1-yr RCS-Eng Urothelial Senior Fellowship Programme. (2) To explore fellows' learning curve (LC) trajectories and perceived European Association of Urology Robotic Urology Section (ERUS) RARC/ICIC curriculum competency achievement. Methods: RARC/ICIC with curative intent for bladder cancer performed by supervised fellows (2015-2025) were reviewed. Perioperative outcomes and Kaplan-Meier survival trajectories served as surrogates of training competency and safety. Cumulative sum (CUSUM) model by operative time (OT) was applied for RARC/ICIC LC. Time to perceived proficiency across the 12 ERUS RARC/ICIC clinical modules was explored. Results: A total of 423 procedures (median follow-up 39 mo, interquartile range 16-70) were included. Proficiency by CUSUM was identified at 30 Conclusions: Structured Senior Robotic Fellowship training achieves safe and efficient acquisition of RARC/ICIC skills. The observed LC corroborates the educational value of the ERUS modular curriculum in the setting of a tertiary referral center.
