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

Pyelocalyceal diverticulum is an incidental finding detected on routine ultrasonography scans which may also show symptoms of recurrent urinary tract infections secondary to urinary stasis and calculi formation within the diverticulum. Orthotopic type of ureterocele occurs as an isolated abnormality and is mostly confined to adults as opposed to ectopic type of ureterocele which is congenital in origin and commonly seen in children and is almost always associated with a duplicated collecting system. We report a case of concomitant occurrence of pyelocalyceal diverticulum and ipsilateral large sized orthotopic ureterocele diagnosed on high-resolution ultrasonography and confirmed on contrast enhanced computed tomography in a 54-year-old adult female. The patient underwent resection of the ureterocele with insertion of left sided double-J ureteral stent which was left in place for 4 weeks following which the patient's symptoms improved and she was discharged after an uneventful post-operative recovery period.
