Bladder augmentation and bladder neck reconstruction in bladder exstrophy patients: a single center experience.
Article in BMC urology, 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
backgroundBladder augmentation with gastrointestinal tissue accompanied by bladder neck repair are important tools for pediatric surgeons in the management of children with Bladder exstrophy for urinary incontinence. The goal of bladder augmentation is to create a reservoir with an adequate functional capacity with low end-filling pressure. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and outcomes of ileocystoplasty with modified Young-Dees-Leadbetter bladder neck reconstruction and continent catheterizable channel in children born with bladder exstrophy at Pediatric Surgery Unit, Children's Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Alexandria University, Egypt. PATIENTS AND
methodsThis prospective study included 20 patients with bladder exstrophy after successful bladder closure and who had small bladder capacity less than 100 ml with incontinence and needed augmentation cystoplasty and bladder neck reconstruction.
resultsAs regards daytime continence, 16 patients (80%) were dry between clean intermittent catheterization CIC sessions, while 4 patients (20%) were wet between clean intermittent catheterization at resting time. During stress, 14 patients (70%) were dry, while 6 patients (30%) were wet (4 of them were wet at resting time). Reflux resolution (100%), and significant improvement in bladder capacity (mean increase from 60.2 ml to 348.5 ml, p < 0.001).
conclusionFor patients with bladder exstrophy, bladder augmentation and bladder neck reconstruction remain crucial for maintaining continence and enhancing their quality of life.
