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

The utilization of ureteroscopy (URS) for managing urolithiasis has garnered substantial global recognition. Nonetheless, bibliometric analyses focusing on URS in the context of urolithiasis treatment remain sparse. Therefore, we used bibliometrics to summarize the relevant literature in this field in recent years, in order to grasp the core research directions, capture the developmental frontiers, and provide valuable information for urologists to understand the research hotspots. In this study, we compiled the literature on URS and urinary stones from the Web of Science core database over the past two decades. In this study, we compiled literature about URS and urolithiasis from the Web of Science Core Collection spanning the past two decades. The assembled data were subsequently visualized and analyzed using CiteSpace and VOSviewer software. The findings revealed a total of 1,461 publications, with a consistent annual increase and a notable surge post-2010. The most frequently occurring keywords identified were "ureteroscopy" and "calculi". Olivier Traxer, a prominent figure from France, is recognized as a leading expert in the domain, particularly emphasizing the practical application of diverse techniques for the treatment and management of urinary stones. The Journal of Urology has disseminated the most pertinent literature in this area, with Turkey emerging as the most prolific contributor. Keyword analysis within this field has identified four primary research hotspots: the investigation of complications to mitigate treatment risks, the standardization of treatment protocols, the determination of treatment indications based on stone types, and the implementation of novel techniques in ureteroscopic lithotripsy.
