Fluid intake recommendations in urolithiasis and general advice to patients without metabolic risk factors.
Article in World journal of urology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Urolithiasis is a highly prevalent global disease with substantially increasing incidence in the last two decades. Data from the literature suggests that 26%-50% of patients will have a recurrence within 10 years after an initial symptomatic stone episode. Therefore, interest has been raised in preventive strategies, aiming to modify the risk factors of stone recurrence by implementing dietary and lifestyle changes and specific medical treatments for stone formers, depending on their recurrence risk factors. Certain dietary factors are thought to contribute significantly to the increased incidence of urolithiasis, particularly a diet low in fiber and high in animal protein, fat, and sodium. Fluid intake is perhaps the most important and modifiable step in the prevention of urolithiasis, irrespective of stone composition. However, the amount of fluid to be consumed and the implications of various fluid types on stone formation are still controversial. In this article, the relationship between fluid intake, beverage types and stone formation-prevention will be discussed. Moreover, general dietary recommendations for patients without metabolic risk factors will be reviewed based on the current literature.
