Laparoscopic versus open pyeloplasty in children: experience of 226 cases at one centre.

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
introductionThe aim of the study was to compare the efficacy of laparoscopic versus open dismembered pyeloplasty in children. MATERIAL AND
methodsTwo hundred and twenty-six Anderson-Hynes pyeloplasties were performed, out of which 131 by open access (OP) and 95 by laparoscopic access (LP). Retrospective analysis of data was performed. The median follow-up was 3 years for LP patients and 6 years for OP patients (
resultsSuccess was achieved in 87 (91.57%) patients who had LP surgeries and in 121 (91.7%) patients who had OP (
conclusionsLaparoscopic and open pyeloplasty is a highly efficient procedure employed to treat UPJO in children with comparable success rates in both groups. In experienced hands, it is possible to reduce the LP operation time to that comparable to the OP group.
