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

purpose of reviewThis paper describes the differences in benign, malignant, and iatrogenic urethral pathology in women and reviews common presenting symptoms and management strategies. RECENT

findingsThe advancement of magnetic resonance imaging has led to MRI becoming the imaging modality of choice for urethral pathology. Urethral pathology is rare, and there remains a paucity of evidence-based literature for management. Urologists and gynecologists must be familiar with common benign urethral pathology, the most common of which includes urethral diverticula, Skene's gland cyst, urethral prolapse, and caruncle. Further case series are providing further insights to the management of these rare entities. Urologists and gynecologists must understand the most common urethral pathologies and be able to identify the most appropriate treatment approach. It is essential to be able to differentiate these entities from malignancy and obtain a thorough surgical history to identify possible iatrogenic causes.
