Chyluria Associated With Nephrotic-Range Proteinuria.
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
Chyluria is the presence of chyle in the urine and is associated with some degree of proteinuria. We report two patients with chyluria who presented with milky urine, weight loss, and edema and were found to have nephrotic-range proteinuria. Although filarial antigen was detected in only one of the patients, flexible cystoscopy could demonstrate chyle efflux from the left ureter in first patient and from both the ureters in the second patient. Both patients received endoscopic sclerotherapy with 0.2% povidone-iodine, which resulted in the clearance of milky urine in three to five days and complete resolution of nephrotic-range proteinuria on follow-up. They remained symptom-free until the six-month follow-up. We deferred renal biopsy in both patients, as proteinuria was confirmed to be non-glomerular in origin.
