A rare case of an infected urethral diverticulum due to urinary melioidosis.

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
Melioidosis infecting a periurethral diverticulum and behaving as an abscess is a rare complication. A 76-year-old woman presented with pelvic pain, dysuria and urinary frequency. CT identified a large periurethral cystic collection and melioidosis was cultured in her urine. Cystoscopy revealed communication between urethra and diverticulum, requiring multiple transvaginal aspirations for re-accumulation and relapsing symptoms. No risk factors for melioidosis were identified, and was likely that isolated urinary infection is due to her urinary tract pathology. This challenging case with a rare pathogen highlights management and source control of melioidosis may need to adapt to anatomical variations promoting abscess reformation.
