Glandular urethral disassembly for Effmann type I A1 urethral duplication with glans duplication: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 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
Background: Urethral duplication is a rare congenital anomaly with heterogeneous anatomical presentations. Effmann type I A1 represents an incomplete distal duplication and is rarely associated with glans duplication. Case presentation: We report the case of a 10-year-old boy presenting with a bifid glans and double distal meatus causing urinary spraying. Imaging and endoscopic evaluation confirmed Effmann type I A1 urethral duplication with associated glans duplication. Surgical reconstruction was performed using glandular urethral disassembly (GUD) with excision of the accessory urethra and glans reconstruction. Results: The postoperative evolution was uneventful. At the 6-month follow-up, the patient demonstrated a single urinary stream, normal voiding, no fistula or stenosis, and a satisfactory cosmetic outcome. Conclusion: This report describes the first application of GUD for Effmann type I A1 urethral duplication with glans duplication. This technique is a feasible and effective reconstructive option for selected distal urethral duplications.
