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

Introduction: Renal artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare yet serious complication following percutaneous nephrolithotomy, especially in patients with solitary kidneys. Effective management is crucial to prevent further renal damage. Case presentation: We report a case of a 41-year-old male with a solitary kidney who experienced gross hematuria and renal insufficiency 3 months after percutaneous nephrolithotomy. Due to the patient's renal insufficiency and the risks associated with arterial catheterization, ultrasound-guided embolization was chosen as the treatment approach. Initial angiographic attempts were impeded by renal vessel spasms, delaying intervention. However, successful direct percutaneous embolization was subsequently performed using ultrasound and digital subtraction angiography. Conclusion: The patient's recovery was uneventful, and follow-up assessments showed no recurrence of renal artery pseudoaneurysm. This case highlights the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided embolization as a viable treatment option for post-percutaneous nephrolithotomy renal artery pseudoaneurysm, particularly in patients with solitary kidneys.
