Effect of Prolonging the Duration of Stenting on Urethral Stricture in Proximal Hypospadias with Severe Curvature Repair: A Prospective Cohort Study.

The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionThe aim of this study was to evaluate whether prolonged stenting reduces the risk of urethral stricture after proximal hypospadias (PH) with severe curvature (SC) repair. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe prospectively studied a cohort of patients with PH with SC repair who underwent urethral plate transection and urethroplasty between January 2010 and December 2020. According to the duration of stenting, the patients were divided into 2-, 4-, and 6-week groups. Postoperative complications and time of urethral stricture occurrence were analyzed.
resultsIn total, 665 patients were included in the analysis. The overall incidence of complications was 26.6% (
conclusionProlonged stenting reduces the risk of urethral stricture in PH with SC repair. Four to six weeks after PH with SC repair may be the key period for the formation of early urethral strictures.
