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

Objective: Renal calculi are a common type of urological calculi and are associated with morbidity. This study was aimed at exploring the effect of flexible ureteroscopy and nephroscopy on stone removal in patients with multiple renal calculi. Method: This randomized controlled trial included a total of 78 cases with multiple renal calculi in our hospital. The patients were randomly divided into the study and control groups and treated with flexible ureteroscopy and percutaneous nephrolithotomy with pneumatic ballistics, respectively. The surgery condition, levels of prostaglandin F2 Result: The operation time, the postoperative analgesia pump application time, one-time stone removal rate, the intraoperative blood loss, and hospital stay of the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group. Postsurgery, the levels of PGE2, PGF2 Conclusion: Flexible ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy under nephroscopy were equally effective against multiple renal calculi. Flexible ureteroscopy reduced surgical trauma without affecting renal function and had a low incidence of complications.
