Endourological management of a rare radiopaque ritonavir-composed urinary calculus.
Article in Urology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Protease inhibitors are a source of nephrolithiasis in HIV + patients, and these stones are described as not detected by CT. While urinary stones are commonly associated with certain protease inhibitors, stones composed of ritonavir are rare. We present the case of a 58-year-old female on ritonavir-boosted atazanavir who presented to our clinic complaining of gross hematuria and flank pain secondary to a ureteral stone. Surgical removal revealed the stone to be composed of 100% ritonavir with no usual urinary stone components. This is the first report of an HIV medicine stone being detectable by CT scan described as 100% ritonavir.
