Chyluria-a review of literature and a modified sclerotherapy regimen.
Article in Turkish journal of urology, 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
Chyluria, described as passage of milky white urine, has been recognized as a urological manifestation of the lymphatic system due to abnormal connection between the blocked and dilated lymphatics and the renal pelvicaliceal systems. We report the case of a 36-year-old female from an endemic area of filariasis in India who presented with chyluria. In addition to medical therapy, intermittent sclerotherapy of renal pelvis with 0.2% povidone iodine was carried out with a dose schedule different from the ones in practice earlier. The idea of intermittent sclerotherapy was to create pyelolymphatic and pyelosinus reflux so as to sclerose the communicating channel between the lymphatic and urinary systems. This method proved to be curative for the patient and she was relieved from her 8-year-old problem and subsequently remained asymptomatic.
