Comparison of staging MRI to re-resection for localised bladder cancer: Narrative review.
Review in BJUI compass, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Introduction: Bladder cancer (BCa) is characterised by high prevalence, multifocality, and frequent recurrence, imposing significant clinical and economic burdens. Accurate staging, particularly distinguishing non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) from muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) disease, is crucial for guiding treatment decisions. This narrative review explores the potential implications of incorporating multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) and the Vesical Imaging Reporting Data System (VI-RADS) into BCa staging, focusing on repeat transurethral resection of bladder tumour (re-TURBT). Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, EMBASE, and MEDLINE databases identified studies published from 2018 to 2023 discussing mpMRI or VI-RADS in the context of re-TURBT for BCa staging. Studies meeting inclusion criteria underwent qualitative analysis. Results: Six recent studies met inclusion criteria. VI-RADS scoring, accurately predicted muscle invasion, aiding in NMIBC/MIBC differentiation. VI-RADS scores of ≥3 indicated MIBC with high sensitivity and specificity. VI-RADS potentially identified patients benefiting from re-TURBT and those for whom it could be safely omitted. Discussion: mpMRI and VI-RADS offer promising prospects for BCa staging, potentially correlating more closely with re-TURBT and radical cystectomy histopathology than initial TURBT. However, validation and careful evaluation of clinical integration are needed. Future research should refine patient selection and optimise mpMRI's role in BCa management. Conclusion: VI-RADS scoring could revolutionise BCa staging, especially regarding re-TURBT. There is potential that VI-RADS correlates more with the histopathology of re-TURBT and radical cystectomy than initial TURBT. While promising, ongoing research is essential to validate utility, refine selection criteria, and address economic considerations. Integration of VI-RADS into BCa staging holds potential benefits for patients and health care systems.
