Pelvic Ectopic Kidney in an Adult: Robotic-Assisted Surgical Treatment of Unrecognized Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction.
Article in Case reports in surgery, 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
Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is observed in approximately 30% of patients with ectopic kidneys. Due to the narrow pelvic space and risk of injuring aberrant structures, an ectopic pelvic kidney with UPJO presents a unique treatment challenge. Most experiences in treating UPJO in pelvic ectopic kidneys using robotic surgical systems are based on the pediatric population. Only a few cases of successful robotic-assisted surgery in adult patients with this condition have been described. This case reports illustrates that the indications for robotic-assisted surgery for UPJO may safely be expanded to include complex adult cases with pelvic ectopic kidney.
