Outcomes and complications of percutaneous nephrolithotomy as primary versus secondary procedure for kidney stones: a prospective cohort study.

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
Introduction: Currently, percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the gold standard of treatment for large renal stones. The high prevalence of urolithiasis is associated with a high recurrence rate increasing the risk of re-intervention. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness and complications of PCNL among patients with previous therapeutic interventions for renal stones. Methods: Between August 2018 and September 2023, 245 patients were prospectively enrolled in this study and who underwent PCNL for renal stones at our institution. We compared patients who had no previous renal surgery (group 1: Results: The fluoroscopy time was significantly longer in the group of patients with previous open surgery than in groups 1 and 3 (161.47±52.44, 223.05±33.29, 172.27±30.51 sec, Conclusion: PCNL in patients with a history of renal surgery was associated with longer fluoroscopy and operative time. However, the success and morbidity rates as a secondary procedure were similar to those of PCNL in patients with no previous intervention.
