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

purposeFluoroscopy-guided percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is procedure of choice for treatment of large urinary tract calculi. This study aimed to investigate the affecting factors on fluoroscopy screening time (FST) and radiation dose (RD) of patients undergoing complete supine percutaneous nephrolithotomy (csPCNL).

methodsAnalytic cross-sectional study was performed on 355 patients who underwent csPCNL. The correlation between the FST and RD and patients' demographics, stone characteristics, preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative parameters were assessed. Multivariate regression analysis was used to explore various parameters which affect FST and RD.

resultsOf all 355 patients, 191 (54.65%) were male and 161 were (45.35%) female with mean age of 48.29 ± 12.38 (16-82) years. BMI was 27.61 ± 4.53 (16.61-39.00) kg/m

conclusionBMI, success rate and tract number can be significant predictor for FST and RD during csPCNL. Identifying the affecting factors on FST and RD can help the surgeon to minimize the danger of radiation exposure by predicting and preoperative planning.
