Spinal Deformity Manifested by Urinary Tract Infection: A Case of Acute-on-Chronic Mobility Dysfunction.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 53-year-old man with diabetes mellitus presented to the emergency department with a fever and impaired mobility. A preliminary diagnosis of urinary tract infection was made based on dysuria and pyuria. History-taking revealed a history of gait disturbance and difficult urination. A thorough physical examination suggested a spinal abnormality. MRI scan revealed a narrow spinal canal due to ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis. Throughout the diagnostic process, we employed both vertical tracing to investigate the causes of urinary tract infection and horizontal tracing to explore comorbidities such as diabetes. Additionally, we introduced appropriate social security and support systems under the name of diagnostic excellence.
