Effects of Stone Removal via Different Approaches in the Treatment of Incarcerated Upper Ureteral Calculi: A Comparative Study.
Article in Emergency medicine international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical effects of percutaneous nephrolithotomy and transurethral ureteroscopic lithotripsy in the treatment of incarcerated upper ureteral calculi. Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed 400 patients with incarcerated upper ureteral calculi admitted to the hospital from January 2016 to December 2021. Among them, 200 patients treated with percutaneous nephrolithotomy were included in the percutaneous group and 200 patients treated with transurethral ureteroscopic lithotripsy were included in the transurethral group. Perioperative indicators and stone clearance rates on day 7 and 1 month after operation and the reoperation rate were compared between the two groups. The incidence of postoperative complications was recorded. Results: The operation time and postoperative hospital stay of the percutaneous group were longer than those of the transurethral group ( Conclusion: Both percutaneous nephrolithotomy and transurethral ureteroscopic lithotripsy are effective in the treatment of incarcerated upper ureteral calculi. The former can reduce the incidence of postoperative complications, but the operation time and postoperative hospital stay are longer.
