Perioperative Optimization Strategies in Major Genitourinary Cancer Surgery.
Review in Cancers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
objectiveTo evaluate current and emerging perioperative optimization strategies in genitourinary surgery and assess their potential to improve surgical outcomes, particularly in patients with modifiable risk factors.
methodsA literature review was conducted using PubMed databases examining perioperative interventions relevant to patients undergoing surgery for genitourinary cancers. Areas of focus included enhanced recovery after surgery protocols, nutritional optimization, exercise prehabilitation, smoking cessation, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, and gut microbiome modulation. Evidence from clinical trials, observational studies, systematic reviews, and current clinical guidelines was reviewed and synthesized.
resultsCurrent evidence supports the use of enhanced recovery after surgery protocols to reduce acute complications, shorten length of stay and decrease recovery time. Nutritional optimization and exercise prehabilitation demonstrated improved functional and metabolic capacity. Smoking cessation improved wound healing and decreased pulmonary and infectious complications. Emerging evidence suggests GLP-1 RAs offer metabolic benefits, and microbiome-targeted interventions may improve postoperative recovery through gut microbiome diversity preservation, although clinical data remains limited.
conclusionsPerioperative strategies demonstrate promising potential to improve outcomes in patients undergoing genitourinary surgeries by addressing modifiable risk factors. Further prospective studies are needed to guide clinical implementation.
