An Infected Simple Renal Cyst at Each Pole of the Left Kidney and Its Management: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
A simple renal cyst can become infected spontaneously due to various modes like direct cyst penetration during biopsy or surgical exploration, hematogenous spread of infection, and retrograde infection from the urinary tract. Managing such cases becomes challenging due to the risk of rupture of the cyst, causing sequelae of bacteremia and septic shock. Aspiration of cyst along with imaging modality can strengthen the diagnosis. However, nephrectomy coupled with antibacterial administration is an updated therapeutic intervention for an infected simple renal cyst. Our patient presented with a renal cyst at each pole of the left kidney complicated by infection, and after confirming the diagnosis on computed tomography, we performed a right-sided nephrectomy after proper informed consent. The patient responded well to treatment and improved her quality of life.
