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

Background: Percutaneous renal biopsy is the primary diagnostic tool for renal diseases. In this study, we evaluated renal biopsy complications and the timing of complications. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed on adult patients who underwent renal biopsy. The data gathering sheet collected patient characteristics. Complications were categorized as minor and major which needed an intervention. Data were analyzed using SPSS, and a p-value <0.05 was considered significant. Results: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 215 patients (mean age: 33.1±16.4 and 54.4%: women) who underwent percutaneous renal biopsy in Shiraz Nemazi Hospital for one year. Of the 298 complications that occurred, 90.2% were minors (56.1%of them microscopic hematuria). Moreover, 2 (0.7%) patients developed major complications and received a transfusion. In addition, most of the complications (98.9%, 295 ones) developed within 8 hours post-procedure. Only hemoglobin drop was significantly higher in women (41.0% vs. 21.4%, P=0.003). Conclusion: This study indicates that renal biopsy is a safe procedure; the results revealed that the significant post-biopsy complications were rare and occurred in the first 8 hours.
