Abstract

The authors present results that were obtained by combining endoscopic resection and external beam radiation therapy in a population of 55 patients presenting with bladder cancer. They also explain the difficulties they encountered in the management of bladder cancer at the Ibn Rochd Cancer Center (Casablanca, Morocco).

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a cohort study, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 55 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
