Minimal invasive management of generalized peritonitis as a result of spontaneous ureteral rupture.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2023. 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 and importanceGeneralized peritonitis following proximal ureteral rupture is a very rare complication. This is about a successfully managed case without open surgical intervention. CASE PRESENTATION: A lady in her 70s presented with generalized abdominal pain, high spiking fever and low urine output for 3 days. She was haemodynamically unstable on admission and was resuscitated and managed at intensive care unit. CECT abdomen revealed partial anterior ureteral rupture with pyonephrosis. She was managed with percutaneous nephrostomy and subsequent anterograde stenting. Her recovery was uneventful and follow up imaging revealed no features of malignancy. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Generalized peritonitis due to renal pathology is very rare and it can be due to urolithiasis or neoplasm. Retroperitoneal infections may lead to irritation of peritoneum or fistulation into the peritoneum leading to generalized peritonitis. This can be managed by various surgical and non-surgical management modalities.
conclusionThere are various pathological causes for acute abdomen. One of the rare causes is spontaneous rupture of ureter in pyonephrotic kidney which can also be managed successfully with minimal intervention.
