1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionBladder stone is a rare and ancient disease. Nowadays new technologies have been developed in the effort to make less invasive stone treatment. Bladder calculi account for 5% of urinary calculi. PRESENTATION OF CASE: A 52-year-old male patient with symptoms of lower abdominal pain, dysuria and pollakiuria was admitted. Urinalysis showed that pH5.0 and presence of calcium oxalate crystals and leukocyturia but erthrocyturia and nitrite were absent. Abdominal ultrasonogry revealed hydronephrosis, thickened bladder wall and large single stone. Plain radiography showed a large bladder stone measuring 12 × 10 cm. DISCUSSION: In our case 1 extremely large bladder calculus occupied most of the bladder and pressing on the orifices of the ureters, leading to the presence of hydronephrosis. For large-sized bladder stones, all the reports have recommended open cystolithotomy.

conclusionThe combination of improved nutrition and modern antibiotic treatment has to be led to the frequency of bladder lithiasis. Calcium intake shouldn't be restricted, whereas oxalate, sodium, and protein intakes have to be limited.
