Endoscopic Synergy: Endoscopic Combined Intrarenal Surgery (ECIRS)-Guided "Cut-to-Light" Holmium Laser Retrograde Endoureterotomy in Ureteral Stricture Management.
Article in Cureus, 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
This is a case report of a 50-year-old diabetic woman with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who had an incidentally detected right-sided ureteral stricture. Ureteral strictures are a serious condition that may sometimes progress silently, ultimately resulting in ipsilateral renal function loss. Proper timing and appropriate treatment are essential to preserve renal function and prevent further complications. The management of long-segment strictures ranges from open repair to laparoscopic, robotic, and interventional techniques. This manuscript presents a case of a long-segment ureteral stricture successfully treated using a minimally invasive endourological technique, preserving normal urinary flow. This is the first study to report a successful synergistic interventional approach for the management of complex ureteral strictures.
