Spontaneous renal artery dissection complicated by renal infarction: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
introductionRenal artery dissection is a rare cause of abdominal pain. The renal arteries are the commonest site of primary dissection involving visceral vessels but spontaneous bilateral dissection is extremely rare. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We present a case of spontaneous bilateral renal artery dissection in a previously fit 43-year-old man who presented with right iliac fossa pain. He was treated conservatively with anticoagulation for 6 months, with resolution of the dissections on imaging at 6-month follow-up. DISCUSSION: The presentation of spontaneous renal artery dissection is non-specific, making it a diagnostic challenge. Computed Tomography angiography is now the gold standard for diagnosis and follow-up of these patients.
conclusionThis case highlights the importance of considering other causes of abdominal pain in a young man with normal initial investigations and the role of conservative management.
