Renal scarring following urinary tract infections in children.
Article in Sudanese journal of paediatrics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common bacterial infection seen in younger age group children. The most common risk factor for renal scarring in children with post-UTI is vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). This study looked at renal scarring following UTI in children by dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scan. It is a cross-sectional time bound study done among 40 infants and children with UTI for a period of 24 months. Their clinical presentation and laboratory data, including micturating cystourethrogram, were documented. DMSA scan, done during the follow-up, established the presence of renal scars if any. UTI was more common in males. Children with history of recurrent UTI had renal scarring. Statistical significance was noted when first and recurrent attacks of UTI were compared for clinical and diagnostic characteristics like
