Detection rate with routine postoperative renal ultrasound to identify urinary tract injury after gynecological surgery.
Article in Archives of gynecology and obstetrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
purposeThe aim of this study was to establish the rate at which routine postoperative renal ultrasonography is able to detect urinary tract injury following gynecological surgery.
methodsA retrospective analysis was carried out for the study period 2015-2019 of all patients who had undergone subtotal or total hysterectomy, or radical hysterectomy or salpingectomy, salpingo-oophorectomy, or oophorectomy, and subsequently had a urinary tract injury.
resultsIn a total of 2068 patients, 25 urinary tract injuries occurred (1.21%), including 21 urinary bladder lesions (1.02%) and four ureteral injuries (0.19%). The incidence of urinary tract injuries was 3% in oncologic procedures and 0.86% in procedures for benign disease. Nineteen injuries (76%) were diagnosed intraoperatively, and six injuries (24%) were clinically diagnosed after surgery. All of the patients had uneventful postoperative renal ultrasound examinations.
conclusionRoutine postoperative renal ultrasonography was not capable of diagnosing urinary tract injuries after gynecologic surgery. Routine postoperative renal ultrasound examinations should, therefore, not be performed after gynecologic operations.
