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

Introduction: We report the case of a transplanted ureter obstructed by an inguinal herniation treated by a robotic-assisted approach. Case Report: This is a case of a 63-year-old male who had a kidney transplant with a graft on the left pelvis in September 2014, and presented to the clinic for evaluation of bilateral inguinal hernia. On physical examination he had bilateral palpable inguinal hernias, with the right one larger and only partially reducible. Computed tomography scan showed portion of urinary bladder and transplant ureter in the left inguinal hernia and mild hydroureteronephrosis in the transplanted kidney. Patient underwent catheterization of the transplant ureter where indocyanine green was injected for proper transplant ureter identification with the Firefly filter and robotic assisted hernia repair. Surgery was uneventful and patient was discharged home the same day with no further complications. Conclusion: The robotic approach using the Firefly filter was shown to be safe during the dissection to avoid injury to the transplant ureter.
