Recent Advancements in Prostate Catheters and Stents for Management of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
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 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
purpose of reviewThe prevalence of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is rising, however, current treatment options present severe complications and limit patient's quality of life. Accordingly, advancements in prostatic catheter and stent designs for use in treating lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in BPH patients have largely expanded in the past five years and we aim to provide an exhaustive summary of recent outcomes. RECENT
findingsThe dual dilation and paxlitaxel eluting Optilume BPH Catheter System enhances promise in catheter-based treatments, providing the longest sustained increase in max urinary flow rate and decrease in post-void residual volume compared to alternative MISTs. Additionally, use of iTiND, along with recent advancements in temporary (EXIME, Prodeon Urocross) and permanent (Zenflow Spring, Butterfly, and ClearRing) stent designs, have demonstrated rapid, lasting, and low-cost LUTS relief with sustained sexual function. Minimally invasive solutions that offer in-office treatment, rapid symptom relief, shorter recovery times, and preservation of sexual function hold great promise in improving outcomes in managing BPH patients with LUTS.
