Renal failure caused by severe pelvic organ prolapse.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP), the transvaginal descent of pelvic organs, can cause mild hydronephrosis but rarely leads to a deterioration in kidney function. We present a case of severe uterovaginal prolapse that caused bilateral ureteral obstruction and led to renal failure and urinary tract infection. During outpatient follow-up, kidney function had already been deteriorating, but POP was not recognised as a causal factor. A longer duration of ureteral obstruction can lead to irreversible kidney damage, and therefore, timely recognition and intervention is of essence. Even in complex cases with various causative factors for kidney injury, the presence of severe POP and kidney injury should prompt the clinician to exclude this cause.
