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

purposePolymeric and metallic stents are commonly used to manage patients with chronic malignant ureteric obstruction (CMUO). This paper compares the outcomes of ureteral stenting via the Resonance

methodsA retrospective case series was conducted whereby patients who had undergone Resonance

results11 patients who presented with CMUO underwent 12 separate procedures of either unilateral or bilateral ureteral stenting. Total number of stents inserted was 16. Median age of patients was 65 (Range = 32) and 72.73% were males. 66.67% of the procedures yielded an improvement in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients as compared to before stenting. Stent failure, defined by stent removal before recommended removal date, occurred in 4 out of 16 (25%) stents. The median duration of Resonance

conclusionWe conclude that the Resonance
