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

Wunderlich syndrome, also known as the spontaneous non-traumatic retroperitoneal hemorrhage, is an uncommon condition characterized by acute, spontaneous, non-traumatic renal hemorrhage into the subcapsular or perirenal spaces. The majority of the cases are caused by renal cell carcinoma or renal angiomyolipoma. Other causes are arteriovenous malformation, cystic renal disease, and anticoagulation medications. The classic presentation is "Lenk's triad" of acute flank pain, palpable flank mass, and hypovolemia. The diagnosis is based on clinical suspicion and confirmed by a CT scan, which is the preferred imaging modality. Due to the rarity of these cases and the wide range of clinical manifestations, the treatment is divergent ranging from conservative management to nephrectomy. Herein, we present a case of massive right renal hemorrhage caused by warfarin toxicity that was initially misdiagnosed as acute renal colic due to the patient's refusal to refer to the clinic during Corona Virus Disease- 19 era and was later managed with a right nephrectomy.
