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: To investigate the effect of percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with needle nephrolithotomy on renal function and incidence of complications in patients with complex renal calculi. Methods: From March 2020 to March 2022, 88 patients with complex renal calculi were enrolled and divided into two groups. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) was performed in the control group, and percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with needle nephrolithotomy was performed in the study group. Perioperative conditions, renal function parameters such as blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr), and cystatin C (CysC) levels, inflammatory factors such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) levels before surgery and 1 day after surgery were determined. The incidence of complications was statistically analyzed between two groups. Results: There was no significant difference in stone clearance rate between the two groups. The operation time and hospital stay in the study group were shorter than those in the control group. The intraoperative blood loss was less than that in the control group. The VAS score was lower than that in the control group. BUN, Scr, and CysC in the study group were not significantly different from those in the control group. CRP and PCT in the two groups at 1 d after surgery were higher than those before surgery, but CRP and PCT in the study group were lower than those in the control group. The incidence of complications in the study group was lower than that in the control group. Conclusion: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with needle nephrolithotomy is effective and safe in the treatment of complex renal calculi.
