Hybrid Surgery for Urethral Diverticulum Penetrating the Bladder.
Article in International urogynecology journal, 2026. 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
introduction and hypothesisUrethral diverticula have various morphological patterns, and in complex cases, a transvaginal approach can be difficult.
methodsHere, we report a case in which a urethral diverticulum originating from the ventral (posterior) side of the urethra penetrated the bladder through the diverticular wall. A 54-year-old premenopausal woman was diagnosed with a urethral diverticulum on the ventral side of the urethra and a communicating branch penetrating from the diverticular wall to the bladder, triggered by recurrent cystitis. Surgical treatment consisted of transvaginal excision of the urethral diverticulum and laparoscopic open bladder surgery to remove as much of the fistula as possible and repair the bladder penetration.
resultsVoiding urethrography on the 7th day after surgery and magnetic resonance imaging 1 year after surgery revealed the disappearance of the fistula, and no recurrence of the urethral diverticulum was observed.
conclusionThis suggests that a hybrid approach combining the transvaginal and laparoscopic approaches might be useful for the surgery of complex urethral diverticula that affect the bladder.
