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

objectiveIt was hypothesized that perirenal fat (PRF) might be associated with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). The aim of this study was to investigate risk factors, including perirenal fat thickness (PRFT), that may contribute to SIRS after PCNL.

methods169 patients with unilateral renal stones who underwent PCNL at our institution between January 2020 and December 2023 were retrospectively included. Based on the occurrence of SIRS after PCNL, patients were divided into non-SIRS group (

resultsIt was found that PRFT at the surgical side was significantly higher in patients with SIRS than those without SIRS (median 4.8 cm vs. 5.2 cm,

conclusionPatients with high PRFT, diabetes, high serum procalcitonin, and positive urine culture may be at a higher risk of SIRS after PCNL. Preoperative comprehensive evaluation and postoperative close monitor should be considered on these patients.
