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

Objectives: To evaluate the pubourethral stump angle (PUA) to determine the site of urethral transection during transperineal anastomotic urethroplasty (TAU). Patients and methods: Patients diagnosed with pelvic fracture urethral distraction defect who underwent preoperative magnetic resonance (MR) urethrography and were treated with TAU between June 2019 and December 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. According to the site of urethral transection during TAU, patients were classified into proximal and distal groups receiving TAU with proximal and distal transection, respectively. The demographic and clinical data were recorded. The PUA was measured on sagittal T2-weighted MR urethrography. The relationship between the site of urethral transection and PUA was analyzed. Results: Sixty-seven patients were included. Forty-one and 26 patients were included in the proximal and distal groups, respectively. Finally, the success rates in the proximal and distal groups were 95.1% and 92.3%, respectively. The PUAs were 123.7° ± 14.6° and 86.5° ± 9.8° ( Conclusions: In the treatment of pelvic fracture urethral distraction defect, the PUA on MR urethrography is an objective and valid parameter for evaluating the site of urethral transection during TAU. A PUA >100° indicates that proximal transection should be preferentially attempted.
