Complete duplex ureter with ureterocele and multiple large stones in the lower ureter: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Complete duplex ureter with ureterocele and multiple large ureteral stones is a rare congenital anomaly that can be easily misdiagnosed as bladder calculi. We report a 48-year-old woman who presented with urinary frequency and was preoperatively diagnosed with bladder stones. However, intraoperative ureteroscopy revealed a complete duplex ureter on the right side with a ureterocele in the lower segment harboring multiple large stones. A Y-shaped ureteral access sheath (UAS) was used as a working channel, enabling effective holmium laser lithotripsy and fragment evacuation. This case highlights the importance of considering ureteral anomalies in atypical stone presentations and suggests that modified UAS devices may facilitate safe and efficient treatment in complex anatomical settings.
