Comparison of two different methods of establishment of canine urethroplasty model: an experimental trial.
Article in BMC urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundGraft substitute urethroplasty is recommended for patients with long segment anterior urethral stricture. The therapeutic effects of the grafts need to be validated on the animal models. Therefore the aim of this study was to compared the operative time, blood loss, intra- and post- operative complications of two different methods of establishment of canine urethroplasty model.
methodsTwelve Beagle dogs were randomly separated into control and experimental group using a random number table. Six animals in the control group received the conventional urethroplasty, while the other 6 in the experimental group received the modified procedures. Tube cystostomy and urethroplasty were performed in the control group. The cystostomy not the tube cystostomy were performed in the experimental group, and the testes were simultaneously removed with the scrotum. Per- and postoperative outcomes, complications were evaluated.
resultsThe urethroplasty were successfully performed for all dogs and all of these procedures were done by the same surgeon. The median operative time in the control and experimental groups was 186.8 min and 188.7 min respectively. The blood loss in the control and experimental groups was 40.8 ml and 45.8 ml respectively. No intraoperative complications occurred. 3 animals in the control group developed acute urinary retention after the accidental removal of suprapubic bladder tube and the cystostomy was done again. There was no occurrence of urinary retention in the experimental group. 4 animals in the control group developed the perineal hematoma, in which one animal had the urine leakage and incision infection. Perineal hematoma occurred in only one animal in the experimental group.
conclusionThe occurrence of urinary retention and perineal hematoma decreased in the modified group, in which the cystostomy not the tube cystostomy were performed and the testes with the scrotum were simultaneously removed.
