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 evaluate the effect of intermittent bladder flushing on recurrent urethral obstruction (rUO) at 7 d and 30 d after discharge and the risk of bacteriuria as a result of indwelling urethral catheterization. Animals: There were 72 cats with suspected obstructive feline idiopathic cystitis admitted to the hospital. Procedures: Cats were randomly assigned to either intermittent bladder flushing ( Results: The age (median: 3.0 years) in the flush group was younger ( Conclusion and clinical relevance: Intermittent bladder flushing during hospitalization appears safe but did not decrease the incidence of rUO. The incidence of bacteriuria following catheterization was not affected by intermittent bladder flushing.
