Wunderlich Syndrome With a Myriad of Presentations: A Case Series.
Article in Cureus, 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
Wunderlich syndrome (WS), characterized by spontaneous nontraumatic renal or perinephric hemorrhage, presents a significant diagnostic challenge due to its varied causes and clinical manifestations. Despite its historically high case fatality rate, prompt and accurate diagnosis combined with a multidisciplinary treatment approach has been shown to significantly improve patient outcomes. This case series discusses three patients with diverse presentations of WS, each managed with tailored therapeutic strategies involving a combination of conservative management, super selective renal artery embolization, and surgical interventions such as nephrectomy. The successful outcomes in these cases underscore the importance of high clinical suspicion, early diagnosis, and comprehensive management to mitigate the syndrome's potentially fatal consequences. Subcapsular hematomas, typically self-limiting, highlight the role of conservative management in renal preservation. This series reinforces that timely and appropriate intervention can transform the prognosis of WS from lethal to manageable.
