Ureteral dilation recovery after intravesical reimplantation in children with primary obstructive megaureter.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: To observe the postoperative recovery following ureteral dilation in primary obstructive megaureter (POM) after ureteral implantation, and evaluate the risk factors affecting ureter diameter resolution. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was performed in patients with POM who underwent ureteral reimplantation using the Cohen procedure. Patient characteristics, perioperative parameters, and postoperative outcomes were also analysed. A widest ureteral diameter of <7 mm was defined as a normal shape and outcome. Survival time was defined as the time from surgery to ureteral dilation recovery or to the last follow-up. Results: A total of 49 patients (54 ureters) were included in the analysis. The survival time ranged from 1 to 53 months. The shapes of a total of 47 (87.04%) megaureters recovered, and most (29/47) resolutions happened within 6 months after surgery. In the univariate analysis, bilateral ureterovesical reimplantation ( Conclusions: Ureteral dilation in POM mostly returned to normal within six postoperative months. Moreover, bilateral ureterovesical reimplantation is a risk factor for delayed postoperative recovery of ureter dilation in POM.
