First prospective clinical assessment of the ILY
Article in World journal of urology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06660914 (A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Robotic Flexible Ureteroscopy With Standard Flexible Ureteroscopy for Treatment of Renal Stones - A Pilot Study), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
purposeTo present the initial prospective clinical assessment of the ILY METHODS AND MATERIALS: Data gathered from 31 kidney units which underwent elective robotic flexible ureteroscopy (FURS) for renal stone management utilizing the ILY
resultsOur cohort consisted of 29 patients, presenting with 45 stones with a median volume of 736.22 mm3. The median operation time was 85 min, accompanied by 3 min for robot draping, 3.5 min for robot docking, 48 min of console operation, and lasing time of 36.75 min. Post operative stay for all patients was 1 day, while complications were observed in 9.68% of cases. Notably, all complications were classified as CVD (Clavien-Dindo) class 1 due to pain requiring emergency department visit. The stone-free rate achieved was 93.55%, and none of the patient required reoperation for the treated stone.
