A systematic review of outcomes associated with patients admitted to hospital with emergency haematuria.
Review in BJUI compass, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Objective: Unscheduled admission for haematuria accounts for 15% of all urological emergencies with over 25 000 patients admitted each year in the UK. It is associated with prolonged admission and poor clinical outcomes. This systematic review aims to determine current management strategies and outcomes in these patients. Methods: A systematic search was performed in October 2023 across MEDLINE, EMBASE and Web of Science for randomised controlled trials and retrospective and prospective observational studies assessing the management of patients admitted as an emergency with haematuria. The primary outcome measure was the length of stay (LoS). Secondary outcomes included hospital readmission, mortality and health resource use. Results: Three eligible publications with a total of 219 patients were identified. Mean length of stay was 5.8 days. The pooled mean age of unscheduled emergency haematuria was 74.8 years and 87.9% of patients were male. Bladder cancer was present in 17% of patients and, similarly, prostate cancer was present in 17% of patients. Conclusions: Unscheduled admission for haematuria is associated with long LoS. This systematic review has demonstrated a lack of data reporting outcomes of unscheduled haematuria and its management strategies. There is a need to perform large-scale prospective studies to better understand this cohort of patients.
