Predictors of time-to-nadir serum creatinine after drainage of bilaterally obstructed kidneys due to bladder cancer.
Article in Current urology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: There are persistent controversies about the outcomes and benefits of drainage of malignant ureteral obstruction by percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN). This study aimed to assess the predictors of the time-to-nadir (TTN) of serum creatinine (SCr) levels after drainage of bilaterally obstructed kidneys (BOKs) due to bladder cancer (BC) by PCN. Materials and methods: This prospective nonrandomized study included patients with BOKs due to BC treated by PCN between April 2019 and March 2022. The primary outcome measure was TTN. Results: Of the 55 patients with a median age (range) of 66 years (47-86 years), 32 (58.2%) had a normal nadir SCr and 23 (41.8%) had a high nadir SCr within 21 days after drainage of BOKs due to BC. High nadir SCr was associated with a higher mean age ( Conclusions: Despite the safety of PCN for drainage of BOKs due to BC, more than 41% of the patients failed to have a normal nadir SCr. Predrainage low urine output and high BMI were associated with longer TTN. Laterality of drainage had no significant effects on the TTN and SCr trajectory.
