Primary genito-urinary tuberculosis with bilateral urolithiasis and renal failure-an unusual case.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Urolithiasis leading to renal failure is a very common occurrence. But if the patient is co-infected with genitourinary tuberculosis, then it becomes all the more unusual and challenging, especially if the patient is immunocompetent. This patient, who presented to us with bilateral urolithiasis and features of renal failure, underwent left nephrectomy after thorough investigations. The biopsy revealed features of renal tuberculosis. The patient was put on anti-tubercular therapy (ATT) and later, he underwent right ureteroscopic lithotripsy. He completed his course of ATT and is on regular follow-up. His serum creatinine also stabilised with regular hemodialysis. The main aim of this case report is to bring to light this unusual and interesting presentation of bilateral urolithiasis with genito-urinary TB presenting as renal failure, which was successfully managed.
