Management of Urinary Tract Injuries by Laparoscopy: Our Experience.
Article in Gynecology and minimally invasive therapy. 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
Objectives: To investigate the underlying risk factors, clinical value, usefulness, and outcome of laparoscopic management of urinary tract injuries. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study including 25 patients of a case of urinary tract injuries in duration from January 1, 2015 to May 31, 2023 was conducted at tertiary care hospital from Central India after the approval from the institutional ethics committee was obtained. All the cases were managed by laparoscopic route by a single surgeon with more than 15 years of experience. Results: A total of 25 patients were operated for urinary tract injuries at our hospital during the study period. All cases were managed laparoscopically. All patients showed complete recovery. The major risk factors for injury were adhesions, previous lower segment cesarean section, and endometriosis. The most of injuries occurred during hysterectomy, with few of them during cesarean section. Ten cases of bladder injuries were identified intraoperatively and managed by bladder repair in two layers. Four cases with ureteric injuries were managed by ureteric catheterization. In ureterovaginal fistula group, 5 cases were managed by ureteric re-implantation uretero-neocystotomy whereas, 1 case was managed by ureteric catheterization. Five cases with vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) were managed by VVF repair. Conclusion: The sound anatomical knowledge of pelvic anatomy, risk factors associated with urinary tract injury, and meticulous operative procedure is important for the prevention and early identification of the injuries if any to minimize the morbidity postoperatively. With technical advances and surgical expertise urinary tract injuries can be managed by laparoscopy with excellent outcome.
