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

Vaginal stones are rarely encountered in practice, often misdiagnosed as bladder stone on plain radiography. The clinical manifestation can be unspecific ranging from asymptomatic stones to acute onset of fever or abdominal discomfort, rendering the diagnosis challenging. They are classified into primary stones resulting from urine stasis, and more commonly secondary stones formed around a nidus. Cerebral palsy is frequently associated with urinary incontinence and leads to constant leakage of urine into the vagina. In addition, the prolonged recumbent position results in urinary stasis, thus promoting stone formation.
