Liesegang rings in the setting of end-stage renal disease.
Article in IJU case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Liesegang rings are acellular, lamellar, concentric rings of organic or inorganic material naturally formed in both biologic and environmental systems. Description in human tissue is scarce. Liesegang rings have exclusively been identified in association with pathologic disease processes and thus are not typically considered in differential diagnosis. They are usually described with cystic or inflammatory lesions. Histologically, Liesegang rings show features that are also seen in sections of parasitic ova, larvae, psammoma bodies, and by radiology as calcifications in cystic diseases of the breast and kidney. Case presentation: We noted at autopsy of a 59-year-old diabetic woman multiple black "stones" in the renal medulla. Microscopic examination demonstrated these to contain Liesegang rings. Conclusion: Liesegang rings formation should be considered in the differential diagnosis of atypical appearing deposits in the kidneys and other tissues. They may play a role in the pathogenesis of kidney stones.
