An Artificial Intelligence-Based System for Identifying Ureteral Stricture Regions.
Article in International neurourology journal, 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
purposeThis paper proposes a technical system designed to accurately identify the stenotic site in patients with ureteral stricture and guide the surgeon. The objective of this technical solution is to improve surgical efficiency.
methodsThe proposed system applies the YOLOv5 algorithm, an artificial intelligence technology, to analyze real-time input images, detect the location of stenosis with high precision, and provide clinical support. The YOLOv5 algorithm was selected to enable rapid and accurate detection of the stenotic area.
resultsThe system demonstrated high recognition accuracy, yielding an average final sensitivity of 0.95. Because sensitivity reflects the probability of a true positive result, this finding confirms that the proposed method offered precise guidance for identifying the stenotic site.
conclusionThe proposed method, which utilizes the YOLOv5 algorithm, can support surgery for patients with ureteral stricture. This system assists surgical procedures by accurately detecting strictures through real-time image analysis. Future research aims to provide both conservative and flexible boundary estimates for determining the stricture location.
