Analysis of the Causes and Preventive Strategies of Urogenic Sepsis after Flexible Ureteroscopic Lithotripsy.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: To explore the causes of urogenic sepsis in patients after flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy and analyze the preventive strategies. Methods: A total of 240 patients who underwent flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy in our hospital from January 2019 to June 2022 were selected and divided into 2 groups according to whether postoperative ureteral sepsis occurred. 24 cases occurred in the observation group. Logistics multivariate regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of urogenic sepsis after flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy, and the serum albumin (ALB), the peripheral blood neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and the level of procalcitonin (PCT) were correlated, and the ROC curve was used to analyze the predictive value of each index for urosepsis. Results: Univariate analysis showed that there were differences in gender, age, diabetes, stone diameter, and urine culture ratio between the two groups ( Conclusion: Gender, age, stone diameter, and urine culture results are the main influencing factors for the occurrence of urinary sepsis. Therefore, preventive measures should be strengthened for this group of patients. In addition, the combined use of postoperative ALT, NLR, and PCT level tests can be better.
