Duplex Collecting System With Ectopic Ureter Into the Posterior Urethra: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
The ureters are muscular tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the urinary bladder and are typically implanted in the superolateral angle of the trigone of the urinary bladder. Although renal anomalies are common, especially in the kidneys, ectopia of the ureter is rare. Clinical presentation depends on the insertion of the ectopic ureter, varying from asymptomatic (mostly in males) to recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and incontinence (mostly in females). Radiology is the best diagnostic tool to achieve a diagnosis. Ultrasound (US), intravenous renogram (IVR), micturition cystourethrogram (MCUG), and others are used to diagnose ectopic ureters, with US and MCUG being the gold standard modalities. Treatment depends on the functionality of the part drained by the ectopic ureter. Heminephroureterectomy and ureteroureterostomy are among surgical treatments for ectopic ureter, and it is either open or laparoscopic surgery. Herein, we present a case of a four-year-old female patient who presented with recurrent UTIs and incontinence.
