A case report of renal papillary necrosis due to tuberculosis-CT urogram and static MR urogram findings.

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
The urinary tract is a common site of tuberculosis, which causes significant morbidity in the form of chronic renal disease. T uberculosis is not only common in developing countries but with the spurt in the number of immune-suppressed patients and the increasing incidence of drug -resistant strains, an increase in the number of patients suffering from genitourinary tuberculosis is expected even in developed countries. Genitourinary tuberculosis occurs owing to haematogenous dissemination of tubercular bacilli. Urinary tract tuberculosis can result in complications such as ureteric stricture, chronic pyelonephritis and papillary necrosis, resulting in compromised renal function. This renal compromise makes it prudent to avoid contrast- enhanced studies if other alternatives are available. There is a dearth of-cases of papillary necrosis reported on static MR urogram. The authors report a case of tuberculosis complicated by papillary necrosis on both CT urogram and static MR urogram.
