[Organ-preserving treatment for urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract].
Review in Urologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract is rare but the incidence is currently increasing in western countries. Radical nephroureterectomy has long been the standard treatment; however, it can lead to chronic kidney failure and also the necessity for dialysis. Therefore, organ-preserving treatment is now recommended for selected patients with low-risk tumors. The choice of treatment depends on the tumor characteristics, comorbidities and individual risk factors. Surgical options for organ preservation include ureterorenoscopy (URS), percutaneous treatment and partial ureteral resection. The URS is the most frequently used method for organ preservation. Photodynamic diagnostics (PDD) and narrow band imaging (NBI) can potentially also be used for tumor detection in the upper urinary tract. Conservative options such as topical treatment with mitomycin C or Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and systemic treatment options are also possible.
