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

Introduction: Vesico-peritoneal fistula (VPF) is an uncommon type of fistula in the urogenital tract and a rare cause of ascites. Case Presentation: Although VPF mainly occurs as an early postoperative complication of gynecological surgery, we report a case of a 71-year-old female patient who presented with ascites, pseudo-renal failure, and peritonitis caused by a VPF as a delayed complication of radiotherapy. Conclusion: In this case report, we discuss treatment strategies based on previously published case studies and our experience. We provide a diagnostic overview of commonly available imaging techniques, such as computed tomography scans and magnetic resonance imagings. Despite their widespread use, these imaging modalities have not led to any shift in the diagnostic process, with the definitive diagnosis being confirmed only by retrograde cystography.
