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

Intravesical administration of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is recommended to reduce the risk of recurrence or progression of carcinoma in situ, stage Ta tumors of high grade, or stage T1 tumors. Renal complications following intravesical BCG therapy are rare. The mechanism of renal granuloma formation may be related to vesicoureteral reflux. Vesicoureteral reflux after transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT) has been reported to be higher when the tumor is located near the ureteral orifice. Herein, we report a case of a renal granuloma after BCG therapy with concurrent ipsilateral urethral carcinoma.
