Multimodal treatment for failed pyeloplasty: Description of a new technique.
Article in Urology case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In cases of failure after pyeloplasty, redo pyeloplasty remains the most definitive procedure, although it demands high technical expertise. In this context, we present a new multimodal surgical technique that combines laser endopyelotomy, dilation with a paclitaxel-dextran drug-coated balloon, and placement of a self-expandable ureteral stent for 3 months. Through 4 cases of failed pyeloplasty, we show resolution of ureteropelvic junction strictures after undergoing this multimodal procedure. The results of this series demonstrate a new treatment option in the challenging setting of pyeloplasty failure.
