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

A young female Golden Retriever with a portosystemic shunt presented with hypoalbuminemia, hyperammonemia, and severe ascites, ultimately succumbing to the illness. Necropsy revealed renal papillary necrosis in the right renal pelvis. Histological examination identified an encapsulated structure within the renal pelvis containing basophilic granules surrounded by an eosinophilic, multilayered capsule. Mass spectrometry analysis of the encapsulated structure identified predominant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius-specific proteins. This finding was further confirmed by PCR and immunohistochemistry, establishing an infection caused by Staphylococcus spp. This is the first documented case of papillary necrosis with an encapsulated structure as a severe manifestation of pyelonephritis associated with S. pseudintermedius.
