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: To evaluate the mid- to long-term effects of the pelvic-peritoneal structure-sparing (PPSS) technique, which aims to preserve the stability of pelvic floor structures, on urinary continence recovery after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study included 82 patients who underwent RARP between October 2017 and May 2018, all operated on by the same surgeon. Patients were divided into a PPSS group ( Results: The median follow-up duration was 1178 days (range: 1-2743 days). The PPSS group had significantly higher continence recovery rates at 3 and 6 months (71.6% and 75.4%) compared with the non-PPSS group (44.8% and 48.2%; Conclusion: The PPSS technique improves early postoperative urinary continence without increasing the rate of positive surgical margins. Although it does not significantly enhance long-term continence, it may still contribute positively to patients' postoperative quality of life.
