Review in Current urology reports, 2024. 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.

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 reviewThe robotic approach is increasingly popular in reconstructive urology. Reconstructive surgeons have commonly used flaps and grafts for obliterating dead space including tissue interposition or as an alternative to mesh in addressing lower urinary tract dysfunction. Advantages of the robotic approach are less incisional pain, excellent visualization in the deep pelvis, and improved surgeon ergonomics. In this literature review, we describe flaps and grafts used in lower urinary tract robotic reconstructive urology, serving as an almanac for these techniques. RECENT
