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

Background: Bladder cancer is a common malignant tumor worldwide, and its incidence and mortality rate in China rank among the highest globally. As an important treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer, orthotopic neobladder reconstruction is associated with high rates of postoperative complications and readmission, which impair patients quality of life. Readiness for hospital discharge can reduce the risk of unplanned readmission. However, there is currently a lack of specialized discharge readiness assessment tools for older (aged ≥ 60 years) patients undergoing orthotopic neobladder reconstruction in China, and general scales are inadequate to meet their complex rehabilitation needs. Objective: To develop and validate a discharge readiness assessment scale for older (aged ≥ 60 years) patients undergoing orthotopic neobladder reconstruction. Design: A cross-sectional validation study. Settings: Data were collected from a tertiary Grade A hospital in Guangzhou. Participants: A total of 230 participants were included, selected by convenience sampling. Methods: The research was carried out in three phases: i) Design review and selection of the questionnaire items; ii) Validity Test: Content validity was verified using the Delphi methodology; Construct validity was examined via exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis; iii) Reliability Test. The study design adhered to the COSMIN (COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement Instruments) guidelines. Convergent and discriminant validity were evaluated. Internal consistency and split-half reliability were assessed. K-means clustering and Fisher discriminant analysis were used for score grade classification.
