Relocation and evacuation of stone fragments using 7.5 Fr flexible ureteroscope with direct-in-scope suction: an experimental study.

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
Introduction: Aim of the study was to evaluate and illustratively depict the aspiration properties of a single-use 7.5 Fr flexible ureteroscope with direct-in-scope suction (DISS) in a specifically designed Material and methods: An experimental Results: Relocation of stone fragments (partial success) was observed for all stones in different locations. Easy evacuation of the 3 mm stone fragment occurred from all calyces. Complete success was also reported for all 4 mm stones. Complete success was documented with the 5 mm stone positioned in the upper and middle calyces, whereas evacuation of the stone from the lower calyx was not achieved after 5 attempts. Conclusions: With the 7.5 Fr Pusen DISS integrated scope, stone fragments 3-5 mm in all calyces were successfully relocated. Whilst evacuation from any calyx was successfully done in 3-4 mm fragments, this was only possible for 5 mm fragments located in upper calyx or interpolar region. The lower pole and greater fragment size need further evaluation for optimal management by DISS.
