Metabolic evaluation of patients with urinary system stone disease: a research of pediatric and adult patients.
Article in International urology and nephrology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesTo determine the metabolic risk factors in children and adults with urinary system stone disease. MATERIALS AND
methodsBetween September 2008 and February 2011, 257 patients who underwent 24-h urine analysis because of urinary system stone disease were included in the present study. Group I and II include only adult patients. The first-time stone formers were named as Group I (n = 106), and recurrent stone formers were named as Group II (n = 107). Group III was occurred by pediatric patients (n = 44). Control group includes 105 people was called as Group IV. This group was divided into two subgroups. Group IVa includes 70 adult people, and Group IVb includes 35 children. The metabolic evaluation results of patients and control groups were compared.
resultsHypercalciuria (35.8, 44.9, and 47.7 % for Group I, II, and III, respectively) and hypocitraturia (42.5, 40.2, and 50 % for Group I, II, and III, respectively) were most common risk factors for stone formation. However, unlike the literature, we have seen that hypomagnesiuria is also an important risk factor in adults and children. Hypomagnesiuria was defined at 36.4 % in Group I, 29 % in Group II, and 56.8 % in Group III (p < 0.05 for each group). These three parameters were significantly different between patient and control groups.
conclusionsHypomagnesiuria, hypocitraturia, and hypercalciuria are the most important risk factors for stone formation in adults and pediatric patients.
