Medullary sponge kidney and Caroli's disease in a patient with stricture urethra: look for the hidden in presence of the apparent.

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
Caroli's disease is a rare congenital disorder with incidence rate of approximately 1 in 1 000 000 population. Renal anomalies which may be associated with Caroli's disease include medullary sponge kidney (MSK), cortical cysts, adult recessive polycystic kidney disease and rarely autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Exact incidence of MSK in patients of Caroli's disease is not known. There are only a handful of reported cases of this association in literature. We hereby report a case of Caroli's disease with MSK with nephrocalcinosis. He presented to primary health centre with symptoms of urethral stricture due to lichen sclerosus et atrophicus and was managed with repeated co-axial dilatation but was never evaluated for underlying chronic renal insufficiency due to MSK. The thorough clinical examination and proper evaluation is important in patient of urethral stricture with underlying chronic renal insufficiency to avoid delayed diagnosis, management and related complications.
