Does tidal volume during mechanical ventilation affect pediatric retrograde intrarenal surgery outcomes?
Article in World journal of urology, 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
purposeThe aim of the study was to analyze the effect of tidal volume during mechanical ventilation (MV) on pediatric retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) outcomes.
methodsThe data of patients who underwent RIRS between January 2018 and January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients under the age of 18 who underwent RIRS and whose data were available were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups, ≤ 7 ml/kg (Group 1) and > 7 ml/kg (Group 2), according to the tidal volume during MV. Demographic data, clinical characteristics, and perioperative and postoperative data of the patients were statistically compared in both groups.
resultsA total of 83 patients were enrolled, with a mean age of 6.9 ± 4.5 (1-17) years and a mean stone size of 11.7 ± 5.4 (5-33) mm. There were 31 patients in Group 1 and 52 patients in Group 2. The demographic data and clinical characteristics of the patients in both groups were comparable. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding stone-related (side, size, density, number, and location) and surgical (access sheath and basket use, operation time, fluoroscopy time, or postoperative stenting rates, complication rates) parameters. In the first month, the stone-free rate was higher in Group 1 than in Group 2 (90.3% vs. 71.1%, p = 0.03). No high-grade or anesthesia-related complications were observed in any of the patients.
conclusionReducing tidal volume in pediatric RIRS may improve the stone-free rate by facilitating laser targeting and increasing operative field stability and surgical comfort.
