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: Urosepsis is a serious complication after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). This study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram model that can effectively predict urosepsis following PCNL. Methods: A total of 839 patients who underwent PCNL at General Hospital of Southern Theater Command from January 2018 to January 2023 and a total of 609 patients who underwent PCNL at Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital from January 2020 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed in this study. The center with 839 patients was used to develop the model, and another center with 609 patients was used as an external validation group. Multivariate analysis was used to determine the optimal variables. The validation of the nomogram was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: Urosepsis was observed in 47 (5.6%) and 33 (5.4%) patients in the two centers. Four variables were selected to establish the nomogram through multivariate analysis, including operative time [P<0.001, odds ratio (OR): 1.035, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.019-1.051], accumulated time of renal pelvic pressure ≥30 mmHg (0 Conclusions: A prediction nomogram was developed and validated to assist clinicians in assessing the probability of urosepsis after PCNL.
