1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The aim of this paper is to study the variations in the percentage of the different types of renal stones with age and sex. Renal calculi were classified according to their composition and structure. Stone formers were divided according to age and sex, and the percentage of each kind of calculi in the different considered age periods for men and women were determined. It was found that calcium oxalate dihydrate calculi decreased with age, but only in men. These calculi were also clearly predominant in men. Hydroxyapatite calculi decreased with age in both men and women, but they were predominant in women. Uric acid calculi increased with age in both men and women, but were predominant in men. Finally, it was found that calcium oxalate monohydrate unattached calculi increased with age in both men and women. As a main novelty, the study here presented demonstrates the importance of distinguishing between calcium oxalate monohydrate papillary stones and calcium oxalate monohydrate unattached stones, since the etiologic factors responsible for their origin must be clearly different.
