Cable Wire as a Nidus for Vesicolithiasis: A Case Report.
Article in Research and reports in urology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Bladder foreign bodies (BFBs) are an uncommon clinical occurrence, often resulting from trauma, self-insertion, iatrogenic causes, or organ migration. These objects can act as nidus for stone formation, leading to vesicolithiasis. Here, we present a rare case of a 61-year-old male with hematuria, dysuria, and abdominal pain. Initial evaluation, including imaging and cystoscopy, revealed a bladder stone encapsulating a foreign object identified as a blue cable wire. Despite denying self-insertion, his history suggested potential unreported trauma. Management involved cystoscopic lithotripsy and foreign body extraction. The case underscores how foreign objects act as nidus for stone formation through inflammatory and biochemical pathways, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and appropriate surgical management to prevent severe complications.
