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

The term "giant vesicle calculus" refers to the urinary bladder stone which is more than 4 cm in its largest diameter. Giant vesical calculus weighing more than 100 g is a rare entity. We report a case of a 63-year male with giant vesicle calculus (measuring 6 × 3 cm) presenting with azotemia and hydroureteronephrosis. Abdominal Ultrasonography confirmed the finding of the vesical calculus with evidence of moderate to gross bilateral hydroureteronephrosis along with diverticulum with thickened and echogenic debris in the urinary bladder lumen suggestive of cystitis. He was then advised for a computerized tomography scan of the kidneys, ureters, and bladder (CT KUB) which revealed a lamellated hyperdense calculus measuring 5.92 × 5.5 × 4.37 cm
