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
Objectives: As an effective and minimally invasive technique, ureteroscopy has some potential intraoperative complications. Ureteral avulsion is among these complications, although rare. This study aimed to determine factors predicting nephrectomy by considering ureteral avulsion from a medicolegal perspective for the 1st time in the literature. Methods: A total of 33 patients with ureteral avulsion during ureteroscopic surgery, who presented to various hospitals in Turkey between September 2004 and April 2019 and whose cases were being reviewed at the Institution of Forensic Medicine with regard to malpractice, were evaluated retrospectively. The patients who underwent nephrectomy after ureteral avulsion were evaluated as Group 1, and those who underwent reconstructive surgery as Group 2. Results: The mean age of the patients was 39.5±12.1 years. Seventeen (51.5%) patients had partial and 16 (48.4%) had complete ureteral avulsion. Nephrectomy was performed in 14 (42.4%) patients, and ureteral reconstruction in 19 (57.5%) patients. It was determined that the patients in Group 1 had more proximal stones and a higher degree of hydronephrosis compared to Group 2. Complete avulsion developed in 71.4% of the patients in Group 1 and in 31.6% of those in Group 2. After avulsion, 78.6% of the patients in Group 1 were treated in a state hospital, and 63.2% of those in Group 2 were treated in a tertiary referral hospital. The increase in the degree of hydronephrosis, presence of complete avulsion, and intervention at a state hospital were determined as independent predictive factors for nephrectomy. Conclusion: This is the first study with the largest cohort in the literature to medicolegally evaluate ureteral avulsion and determine predictive factors for nephrectomy. Although each patient should be treated with different methods in the presence of ureteral avulsion, our study aimed to provide a common approach to this catastrophic complication.
