A novel comprehensive predictive model for obstructive pyonephrosis patients with upper urinary tract stones.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundCalculous pyonephrosis tended not to be accurately diagnosed before operations. It is mostly confirmed during percutaneous nephrolithotripsy or percutaneous nephrostomy. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors for predicting obstructive pyonephrosis patients with upper urinary tract stones.
methodsClinical data of 322 patients with upper urinary tract stones and obstructive hydronephrosis were retrospectively searched and analyzed in our study. The patients were divided into two groups; pyonephrosis and non-pyonephrosis groups. Both disease related factors and infection-associated indicators were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were performed on preoperative variables. Accordingly, ROC curves were drawn, and a novel comprehensive model was constructed to predict the pyonephrosis. OUTCOMES: Compared to the non-pyonephrosis group, patients in the pyonephrosis group showed statistical differences in sex, urinary tract infection (UTI) within 3 months, stone density, computerized tomography (CT) value of hydronephrosis, serum creatinine, hydronephrosis, contralateral kidney severe hydronephrosis or atrophy, preoperative white blood cells, neutrophils, serum C-reactive protein, urine leukocyte, nitrite, and urine culture revealed statistical difference (
conclusionsHydronephrosis, CT value of hydronephrosis, blood neutrophils, urine leukocyte, and urine culture were independent risk factors to predict pyonephrosis. The novel comprehensive model was found to be an effective method to predict pyonephrosis and needed to be further confirmed in prospective studies.
