Female urethral stricture: which one is stronger? Labial vs buccal graft.

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
introduction and hypothesisWe aimed to compare labial and buccal mucosa graft methods in female urethroplasty.
methodsFemale urethroplasty surgeries performed between March 2016 and October 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Labial and buccal mucosa graft surgeries were listed.
resultsBetween March 2016 and October 2020, a total of 28 patients had graft urethroplasty surgery in our center. Fourteen had labial, 14 had buccal onlay graft urethroplasty. The pre-treatment Qmax values were 13 ml/s in the labia major onlay graft (LMOG) group and 12.5 ml/s in the buccal mucosa onlay graft (BMOG) group. The Qmax values after the treatment were remeasured at the 1st, 3rd, and 12th months. They were 20 ml/s, 24 ml/s, and 24 ml/s in the LMOG group and 23 ml/s, 25 ml/s, and 28 ml/s in the BMOG group. The operation times were 65 min (55-90) in the LMOG group; in the BMOG group, it was 70.35 min (65-90).
conclusionsIn female urethral strictures, especially in long segments and recurrent strictures, graft urethroplasty is a successful and safe method. Dorsal buccal onlay mucosal graft and labia major grafts show similar results in the early period to complications and success. In the long term, buccal onlay mucosal graft gives better results.
