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

Purple urine bag syndrome (PUBS) is an unusual presentation of urinary tract infection (UTI). Few cases have been reported in Africa. We present a case report of Purple Urine Bag Syndrome from the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The patient was a bedridden catheterized 71 -year-old quadriplegic female patient with a history of hypertension, and ischemic stroke. She was treated with a course of appropriate antibiotics and by changing her urinary catheter and bag. The patient's caregiver refused further care and signed against medical advice after forty-eight hours of admission without doing the requested investigations. Purple urine bag syndrome (PUBS) is a rare benign condition with a good prognosis.
