Forgotten Double-J ureteral stent: An analysis of 25 cases in a tertiary hospital.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Introduction: Double-J (DJ) ureteral stents are considered basic and common in daily urological practice. We aim to share our experience of managing 25 cases of forgotten double-J (DJ) stents in our tertiary care center. Methods and materials: We did a retrospective analysis of cases with forgotten DJ stent for a period of one year spanning from February 2021 to February 2022. Detailed information like age, sex, the indication for insertion of the double-J, the period of insertion, presenting symptoms, and the definite procedure performed to remove the double-J. Results: The total number of cases was 25. We had 60% of patients underwent previous procedure in our hospital and the rest 40% were in other centers. The mean age was 38.44 years. The mean duration of the indwelling stent was 20.36 months, and the duration ranged from 13 months to 33 months.Most common indications for stenting were URS (64%). Presenting complaints were dysuria (n = 19; 76%), hematuria (n = 13, 52%), flank pain (n = 9; 36%), storage lower urinary tract symptoms ( Conclusion: Forgotten double-J ureteral stents are a source for morbidity. Patients should be educated about the complications of the forgotten double-J. Creating a scheduled program for notifying patients with double-J stent is another good way.
