1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objectives: This study is aimed to investigate the outcome of one-stage ureteroscopy (URS) and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for simultaneous ureteral and renal stones over 10years at a tertiary urology institute. Materials and methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of patients who were operated on for simultaneous ureteral and renal stones from January 2011 to December 2020. Patients were divided into 2 groups: group A, who underwent one-stage URS and prone PCNL, and group B, who underwent staged procedures. The overall success, complications, operative time, and hospital stays were compared between the 2 groups. Results: Data for 190 patients were reviewed; mean age was 50 ± 13years old, and 146 (77%) were male. The one-stage (A) and staged (B) groups included 102 and 88 patients, respectively. Group A included older patients, with a high The American Society of Anesthesiologists score, while group B included more patients with multiple or staghorn stones. The one-stage group recorded shorter operative time (120 ± 12min vs. 140 ± 16min, Conclusions: PCNL and URS can be performed in one-session for simultaneous ureteral and renal stones, except for multiple renal and staghorn stones. The results are comparable to those of the staged procedure in terms of success rate and complications, with the advantage of a shorter operative time and hospital stay.
