Minimally invasive open dismembered pyeloplasty technique: Miniature incision, muscle-splitting dissection, and nopelvis reduction in children.
Article in Asian journal of urology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
objectiveTo report the outcomes and complications of open dismembered Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasty with miniature incision in treating children's ureteropelvic junction obstruction.
methodsBetween March 2007 and April 2011, 109 children with a mean age of 2 years and 8 months old with ureteropelvic junction obstruction underwent open dismembered pyeloplasty. Clinical manifestations, radiographic assessments, incision size, surgery time, hospital stay, and complication rate were recorded. All patients had a documented ureteropelvic junction obstruction (having T1/2 more than 20 min in diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid [DTPA] scan) with symptomatic stenosis or decreased kidney function (differential function <40%). Pyeloplasty was done by a retroperitoneal flank approach with miniature incision without pelvis reduction. One surgeon did all the surgeries. Success rate and complications were assessed in a 3-year follow-up.
resultsMean surgery time was 52 min (47-60 min). Incision size was 18-28 mm. Mean hospital stay was 3 days (2-8 days). The surgery was successful in 98.2% of patients with a mean follow-up time of 36 months (success was defined as disappearance of symptoms, if present, with improved ultrasound imaging results or Reno graphic parameters). The complication rate was 7.33%, including urinary leakage, double-J urethral stent dislocation and infection.
conclusionOpen dismembered pyeloplasty is a safe, technically feasible and effective therapy in treatment of children's ureteropelvic junction obstruction. It takes a short time to do, requires a small incision and has few complications and a short recovery period.
