A Case Report and Literature Review of a Giant Bladder Stone in a 43-year-old Female (9 x 8 x 4 cm, 250g).

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
Cystoliths are an uncommon manifestation of urolithiasis. They are typically observed in male patients who are over the age of 45. A giant bladder calculus is a stone that is greater than 4 cm in diameter and weighs more than 100 g. We report the case of a 43- year-old female who was admitted to the urology department with dysuria, lower abdominal pain, fever, nausea, and microscopic hematuria. Mild tenderness in the suprapubic region was noted during the patient's physical examination. A hyperdense image measuring 7.2 x 6.4 cm was revealed during an abdominal CT scan, which confirmed the diagnosis. A 280 g stone, measuring 9 x 8 x 4 cm, was extracted through open cystolithotomy. In the female population, bladder calculus formation is uncommon. The standard treatment is open cystolithotomy, and computed tomography is a valuable tool for confirming the diagnosis.
