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

Emphysematous pyelonephritis and emphysematous cystitis are intractable diseases. Eight cases of bilateral emphysematous pyelonephritis and emphysematous cystitis have been reported, but no treatment has been established. An 88-year-old female was admitted with traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, and on the fourth day of hospitalization, she developed fever and septic shock. A computed tomography scan revealed bilateral emphysematous pyelonephritis and emphysematous cystitis. The patient was treated with bilateral double-J stents and an indwelling urethral catheter. This is the first report of bilateral emphysematous pyelonephritis and emphysematous cystitis treated conservatively with drainage and an internal stent, which may be a treatment option.
