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

Introduction: Cystinuria is often diagnosed by large renal stone for pediatric patients. The patients suffer from recurrence of stone disease, develop the chronic kidney disease and fall into end-stage renal failure. Total removal of stone at the first intervention and prevention of recurrence are essential. Although, it is difficult to treat the pediatric stone patients for their anatomical feature. Case presentation: We report three cases of pediatric cystine stone patients (two 4-year-old boys and a 9-year-old girl) successfully treated by mini-percutaneous nephrolithotripsy and antegrade ureteroscopy. We could remove stones completely in all three cases, and the patients did not suffer from major complications. Conclusion: It is essential to select the surgical approach, the endourological device, and the patient's position which is suitable for the age, the body size, and the condition of stones at the initial intervention of pediatric cystine stone.
