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

We describe a case of a 65-year-old woman with a submucosal bladder stone with no apparent underlying cause. She presented with lower abdominal pain, dysuria, and a history of recurrent cystitis. Ultrasound and computed tomography of the lower abdomen revealed the presence of lithiasis nearby to the left ostium. During ureterorenoscopy, stone was found neither in the bladder nor in the left ureter. Instead, we observed a macroscopic bulge close to the left ureter. After opening of the mucosa, a stone became visible and could be removed. Mostly, imaging of the calculus was done some time before surgery. During this time interval, it is a possibility that the stone has already passed the urinary tract. Our case illustrates that it is important for each patient to search for the calculus extensively to prevent needless symptoms and investigations.
