1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Colovesical fistula (CVF) is a rare but potentially serious condition characterized by abnormal communication between the colon and the bladder. This pathology can result from inflammatory diseases, malignancies, or previous surgical interventions, with a significant impact on the patient's quality of life. CVF is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, particularly in immunosuppressed individuals, such as renal transplant recipients, due to their increased susceptibility to infections and surgical complications. In this case report, we describe a case of a 57-year-old male patient, a renal transplant recipient under chronic immunosuppressive therapy, who developed an enterovesical fistula. The management of CVF in transplant patients poses diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, requiring a multidisciplinary approach to optimize clinical outcomes. The relevance of this case lies in the complexity of treating a severely ill immunosuppressed patient, with few similar cases reported in the literature.
