Use of disposable painless silicone urethral catheter during urological surgery for male patients: a randomized controlled study.
Trial report 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
objectiveThe objective of this study is to evaluate the benefits of placing a disposable, painless silicone urethral catheter in male patients undergoing urological surgery.
methodsA total of 246 male patients who were scheduled to undergo elective urological surgery under general anesthesia were randomly allocated to the observation and control groups. Patients in the observation group received a disposable, painless silicone urethral catheter connected to an analgesic pump infusing 50 mL of 2% lidocaine at 2 mL/h. The control group received a standard silicone urethral catheter post-surgery. Pain scores, the incidence and severity of catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD), sedation scores at 0, 1, 6, 12, and 24 h post-surgery, satisfaction scores at 24 h post-surgery, and postoperative complications were recorded.
resultsThe incidence of CRBD among patients in the observation group at 1, 6, and 12 h post-surgery was significantly lower than in the control group (at 1 h: 15.25% vs. 28.23%, respectively; p = 0.021; at 6 h: 8.47% vs. 20.16%, respectively; p = 0.010; at 12 h: 4.24% vs. 12.90%, respectively; p = 0.017). The severity of CRBD was also significantly lower in the observation group at 0 and 1 h post-surgery (p = 0.012 and p = 0.026, respectively). Pain and sedation scores at 1, 6, and 12 h post-surgery were significantly lower among patients in the observation group compared to those in the control group. Although there were no significant differences in postoperative complications, patients in the observation group reported significantly higher satisfaction scores (p < 0.001).
conclusionsThe placement of a disposable painless silicone urethral catheter in male patients during urological surgery was effective in reducing the incidence and severity of postoperative CRBD, relieving pain, and improving patient satisfaction without clinically significant adverse reactions.
