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

The ureterocolic fistula (UF) can be a rare but serious complication of abdomino-pelvic surgery, gynecological procedures, oncological or inflammatory conditions and, especially in colorectal surgery, it can be due to anastomotic leaks or iatrogenic injuries of the ureter. Treatment is multidisciplinary, often involving endoscopic urological procedures or surgery, when necessary. We present a case of an UF following laparoscopic anterior resection for sigmoid cancer Some peculiar topics, like an early clinical presentation and a rapid resolution with adequate approach, are very interesting and offer good example for suspicion of UF and management. Our patient presented fever and watery diarrhea in 12
