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

This case report discusses post-obstructive acute kidney injury (AKI) in a 26-year-old woman with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and uterine fibroids. The patient's AKI was diagnosed through elevated creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels and confirmed by transabdominal ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) scan, which revealed severe bilateral ureterohydronephrosis. The patient underwent fluoroscopic and sonographic bilateral nephrostomy tube placement, which significantly improved renal function. An exploratory laparotomy and superficial mass biopsy indicated a retroperitoneal tumor consisting of fibroadipose and muscular tissue with focal suppurative inflammation. The patient's renal function normalized by discharge. This case underscores the importance of early recognition, radiological evaluation, and timely intervention in managing AKI secondary to obstructive uropathy and calls for further research on optimal management strategies for AKI secondary to primary retroperitoneal masses.
