Investigation of Virulence Genes of the Predominant Bacteria Associated with Renal Stones and their Correlation with Postoperative Septic Complications.
Article in Infection and drug resistance, 2022. 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
Purpose: Nephrolithiasis is a worldwide disease, and 4.7% of the patients may develop postoperative sepsis. Characterization of virulence genes of bacteria associated with renal stones is still lacking in the literature. The study aimed to investigate the virulence genes of the predominant stone bacterial isolate and their association with postoperative septic complications in patients treated with percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Methods: Stone and midstream urine samples were collected from 200 nephrolithiasis patients who underwent PCNL. Microbiological examination and virulence profile were studied for the common bacteria isolated from the stones. Results: Microbiological analysis revealed that Conclusion: There has been a notable shift toward gram-positive organisms (
