Correlation Between the Grade of Hydronephrosis with Surgical Outcomes After Ultrasound-guided Supine Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy: A Retrospective Observational Study.
Article in Medeniyet medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objective: The preferred therapy for staghorn stones and large kidney stones is percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Ultrasound-guided PCNL has definite advantages over fluoroscopy-guided PCNL. Preoperative characteristics are essential to assess better surgical outcomes. The goal of this study was to analyze the correlation of hydronephrosis with surgical outcomes after ultrasound-guided supine PCNL. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at Doris Sylvanus General Hospital. Data of the patients was obtained from hospital records. Hundred and five patients underwent ultrasound-guided PCNL in the supine position from August 2020 to August 2022. Data were analyzed using SPSS 16.0. Results: The presence of hydronephrosis was 85 (80.95%), which consisted of Grade I 15 (14.30%), Grade II 25 (23.80%), Grade III 28 (26.70%), and Grade IV 17 (16.20%). In our study analysis, complications occurred in 16 patients (15.23%). Grade I complications of the Clavien-Dindo classification was of in 4 cases, 11 cases of grade 2 complications, and 1 patient died. The statistical result was the relationship between grade hydronephrosis and the grade of complication using the modified Clavien-Dindo system. We found a p-value of 0.207 (>0.05), and there is no statistically significant relationship p=0.382 and r=-0.086 was a negative correlation. There is also no statistically significant relationship between hydronephrosis and stone clearance with p=0.310. Conclusions: The use of ultrasonographic guidance PCNL has been reported as a safe and effective procedure for the management of large renal stones. In this study, there was no correlation or signification between hydronephrosis and surgical outcome after ultrasound-guided supine PCNL.
