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

Pelvicalyceal rupture is a rare but clinically significant condition often associated with ureteral obstruction. We report a 24-year-old female presenting with acute right flank pain, nausea, and vomiting caused by a 3 mm distal ureteric stone. Imaging revealed hydroureteronephrosis with urine extravasation. Immediate double-J stent placement successfully resolved the obstruction and rupture. At a one-month follow-up, the patient showed complete recovery without recurrence. This case highlights the importance of timely diagnosis and intervention, even in tiny ureteric stones, to prevent severe complications.
