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

purposeTo present outcomes of a registry to understand the practice patterns, resource utilization, and nuances of suction mini-percutaneous nephron lithotripsy (SM-PCNL).

methodsData from 30 centers in 21 countries were prospectively collected (March-November 2024). SM-PCNL was defined as PCNL using a suction nephrostomy sheath of size 14-22 Fr. with any lithotripsy device. There were no instructions on how to perform the surgical procedure. Stone features and stone-free status were assessed using an unenhanced CT scan. Data are presented as median/interquartile range and frequency/proportion.

results1707 patients were included and 42.4% of them were males. Most were first-time stone formers. Median age was 50 years. Median stone volume was 1700 mm

conclusionsThis registry outlines the various equipment, peri-operative strategies, complications, and outcomes of SM-PCNL performed in real-world practice, providing valuable data on the nuances of performing such surgery.
