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

A urethral stricture is an abnormal narrowing of the urethra due to spongiofibrosis of the urethral mucosa and the underlying corpus spongiosum. The diagnostics include uroflowmetry, sonography and radiology. For penile strictures the success rate of endoscopic treatment is low. Therefore, urethroplasty should always be performed, preferably using oral mucosa. Depending on the complexity, reconstruction must be carried out in one or multiple stages. For short bulbous strictures endoscopic treatment can primarily be carried out. In the case of recurrence urethroplasty should be carried out. The indications for urethral reconstruction are primarily given for long bulbous strictures. Depending on the length and extent of the stricture, a scar resection and end-to-end anastomosis, non-transsecting end-to-end anastomosis or augmentation urethroplasty can be performed. Perineal urethrostomy (the so-called boutonnière procedure) is a treatment option for patients with complex strictures or for patients who want a straightforward solution.
