The impact of phone counseling on urinary stone prevention.
Article in World journal of urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveWe compared the effect of standard office-based consultation (OC) and phone correspondences (PC) on dietary 24-h urinary parameters.
methodsThe medical record of all patients treated between January and April 2019 was reviewed. Only patients who had at least two consecutive 24-h urine collections were included. Linear and logistic regressions were used to investigate the difference between the changes in urinary parameters after OC and PC.
resultsForty-three patients underwent 135 OC and 34 PC. Twenty-one received OC and PC, and 22 had only OC. Gender, age, the distance to stone clinic, the number of previous stone episodes, and baseline urinary parameters were similar between the groups. Patients who had both OC and PC had a longer follow-up time (51.7 vs 18.5 months, p < 0.0001) as well as more consults (Median 5.4 vs 2.5, p < 0.0001). Six (27%) patients who had only OC, and eight (38%) patients who had both OC and PC, experienced stone recurrence during the study period (p = 0.52). Following PC, there was a greater improvement in urine volume in comparison to OC (0.27 l/day vs -0.06 l/day, p = 0.034), but there was no difference in the absolute values after the consults between the groups.
conclusionIn established stone-clinic patients, PC was associated with a better adherence with follow-up. The 24-h urine results were similar between PC and OC. PC may be an effective alternative for urinary stone management.
