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

Objective: This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted laparoscopic ipsilateral ureteroureterostomy (RAL-IUU) in treating children with duplex kidney ureteral malformations by detailing our early single-center experience. Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data from 14 children with complete duplex kidney ureteral malformations treated with RAL-IUU at our institution from December 2021 to January 2024. Clinical data included patient demographics, surgical details, and postoperative outcomes. Results: The operation time averaged 128.71 ± 22.35 min in 14 cases, intraoperative blood loss was 7.57 ± 2.77 ml, drainage tube placement lasted for 3.14 ± 0.66 days, and hospital stay averaged 4.79 ± 0.70 days. Stent placement lasted 43.58 ± 6.33 days. Notable changes were observed in the upper moiety anterior-posterior diameter (APD) before and after surgery (23.84 ± 8.05 mm vs. 6.71 ± 2.20 mm, Conclusion: RAL-IUU provides an excellent surgical field and operating space, precise suturing, and minimal surgical trauma. Postoperatively, there is a reduction in renal pelvis and ureteral hydronephrosis, recovery of split renal function, and minimal complications all with rapid recovery. RAL-IUU is a safe and feasible treatment option for children with complete duplex kidneys.
