Bilateral ileal ureter substitution for patients with ureteral strictures secondary to gynecological tumors radiotherapy: a multi-center retrospective study.

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
backgroundThe selection of treatment for bilateral ureteral strictures caused by radiotherapy in patients with gynecological tumors often brings great challenges to urologists. This study was designed to analyze the characteristics of radiation-induced ureteral strictures and summarize the surgical experience of bilateral ileal ureter substitution.
methodsWe retrospectively collected the medical records of 18 patients between June 2010 and June 2019 who had a radiation-induced bilateral ureteral strictures. Time interval from radiotherapy to the discovery of ureteral stricture was categorized into short-term (less than 12 months) and long-term (over 12 months) groups. All patients received reverse "7" bilateral ileal ureteral substitution. Surgical success was defined as no restenosis, relief of symptoms, and improved/stabilized hydronephrosis.
resultsThe patients had been suffered from ureteral stricture for a median of 12 [2-106] months. The mean length of the left and right ureteral stricture was 9.6±2.6 and 8.8±3.2 cm, respectively. The mean length of the ileal graft was 29.1±7.4 cm. The mean operative time was 308.4±70.2 min, and the mean estimated blood loss was 254.7±166.2 mL. The postoperative hospital stays in the short-term group was significantly shorter than that in the long-term group (14.0
conclusionsBilateral ileal ureter substitution can be an effective strategy for radiation-induced ureteral stricture in patients with gynecological tumors.
