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

Objectives: This study aimed to report the impact of minimally invasive partial nephrectomy (PN) on short- and long-term renal functional outcomes through a single-institution, long-term experience. Materials and methods: We retrospectively reviewed consecutive patients who underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic and/or robotic-assisted PN for renal masses by a single surgeon between 2016 and 2025. A multimodal perioperative renal-protective protocol was routinely utilized. Baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was compared with early and late postoperative eGFR changes surveilled over a 2-year period post-PN. Multivariate regression analysis of multiple variables was performed for the association with change in eGFR at 2-year follow-up. Results: A total of 281 patients with a mean (standard deviation [SD]) age of 67.70 (±10.05) years were included. Mean (SD) baseline serum creatinine and eGFR were 1.04 (±0.31) mg/dL and 74.08 (±19.28) mL/min, respectively. Mean eGFR showed an early postoperative significant decline to 63.98 ± 19.8 mL/min at 2 weeks, followed by delayed recovery at 6 months (69.23 ± 20.87) and then stabilization through 1- (69.4 ± 19.26) and 2-year (68.15 ± 19.67) follow-up. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified renal mass size ( Conclusion: After PN, renal function demonstrates a pattern of early decline followed by substantial recovery over time. Tumour size and preoperative eGFR were the main predictors of late eGFR changes. With proper surgical techniques and perioperative renal-protective strategies, the effect of WIT can be mitigated.
