Bowel Perforation During Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy: Diagnosis, Management, and Follow-up.
Article in European urology open science, 2024. 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
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the procedure of choice for large kidney stones, but serious complications such as bowel perforation may occur. We discuss the diagnosis and management of colonic and small-bowel perforations due to PCNL and suggest principles for care and prevention. We emphasize the significance of imaging tools to direct percutaneous access, the importance of early diagnosis, and the relatively high success rate for conservative management. Patient summary: Large kidney stones are usually treated with a keyhole surgery procedure called percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). A rare but serious complication of this procedure is puncture of the bowel. We discuss how to prevent, diagnose, and treat this complication in patients undergoing PCNL.
