Xanthogranulomatous Pyelonephritis Mimicking a Complex Renal Cyst: A Report of a Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGPN) is a chronic granulomatous inflammatory condition that affects the kidney and can often be hard to diagnose preoperatively due to its varying clinical presentations. We present here a rare case of a 36-year-old man with focal XGPN with preoperative CT imaging showing a large heterogenous lesion (computer tomography Hounsfield unit (CT HU) + 20) of size ~ 8.6 x 8.9 x 9.4 cm (anteroposterior (AP) x transverse (TR) x craniocaudal (CC)) arising from the inter pole region with few hyperdense solid components and septations suggestive of a complex renal cyst. The patient underwent open decortication and excision of the infected complex right renal cyst with right DJ stenting. He was treated with antibiotics and had an uneventful post-operative period.
