Feasibility and safety of flexible ureteroscopy with intelligent control of renal pelvis pressure without urinary catheter: a retrospective study.
Article in BMC urology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundTo explore the feasibility and safety of aflexible ureteroscopy with intelligent control of renal pelvic pressure(FUS-ICP) without a post-operative indwelling urinary catheter .
methodsIn this retrospective study, we assessed patients with upper urinary tract stones who were treated with FUS-ICP at the Ganzhou People's Hospital from February 2022 to December 2023. Patients were divided into the non-urinary catheter (non-UC) and urinary catheter (UC) groups according to whether an indwelling catheter was used after surgery.
resultsIn total, 142 patients were included in the study. There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the two groups. Patients in the non-UC group performed better than those in the UC group in terms of catheter-related bladder irritation (P = 0.001), the Sedation-Agitation Scale score (P = 0.012), and the numerical rating scale (P = 0.003). The incidences of urinary retention (P = 0.620), urinary tract infection (P = 0.529), and replacement of urethral catheter s (P = 0.438) in the UC group were inferior to those in the non-UC group, but there was no statistical significance.
conclusionsIt is feasible and safe to perform FUS-ICP without a post-procedure indwelling urinary catheter.
