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: This study aims to explore possible gender disparities in urological diagnostic and therapeutic care for NMIBC, particularly in the use of enhanced endoscopic imaging techniques. Materials and Methods: An international survey in seven languages was distributed to all members of the Société Internationale d'Urologie (SIU). We captured specifications related to TURBT performance, attitudes towards the use of enhanced imaging and adherence to international guidelines for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics. Gender disparities were assessed using propensity score matching (PSM) for age, working environment, subspecialisation and years of experience. Results: A total of 3595 SIU members from 91 countries participated (response rate 35%). Male participants performed a higher volume of TURBTs per month ( Conclusion: No significant gender-related disparities were found in urological care for NMIBC, including the use of enhanced imaging techniques. These findings apply to both urologists and trainees, with comparable adherence to guidelines.
