A Case Report of Spontaneous Bladder Rupture: An Uncommon Cause of Ascites.
Article in Case reports in oncology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Spontaneous bladder rupture (SBR) is a rare cause of ascites. A systematic review identified only 351 reported cases in the literature. This condition is frequently misdiagnosed due to vague symptom presentation and failure to promptly link SBR to its common risk factors, such as pelvic irradiation and alcohol intoxication. Its presentation is not different from the most common causes of ascites, and the differential diagnosis is essential. Case Presentation: Here, we present a case of a male with liver disease with portal hypertension, a previous history of cancer, and prior surgery with an artificial urinary sphincter placement who developed acute recurrent ascites and rapidly progressing acute kidney failure requiring dialysis. Extensive workup revealed that the kidney failure was caused by SBR, resulting in urinary ascites. The bladder rupture was treated by surgery, leading to complete resolution of the patient's symptoms. Conclusion: The diagnosis of SBR requires a high level of suspicion due to its rarity and nonspecific symptoms. Here, we present an extensive review of differential diagnoses of ascites and the pathway for the final diagnosis of SBR.
