Change of the suprapubic catheter: Not always safe!
Article in Indian journal of urology : IJU : journal of the Urological Society of India. 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
Suprapubic catheterization (SPC) is a commonly used technique for urinary bladder drainage. As an SPC may be needed for long term, the catheter needs to be changed every 2-6 weeks. Change of SPC is a simple and a safe outpatient procedure. Presented here are three unusual complications that occurred when changing the SPC catheter such as catheter getting misplaced up the ureter, balloon extruding outside the urethra and one case of bowel perforation. It is possible that greater awareness of risks and use of a proper technique could have prevented all three complications.
