Reno-Duodenal Fistula Caused by Metastatic Lung Cancer.
Article in Journal of Brown hospital medicine, 2025. 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
Reno-duodenal fistulas are an extremely rare complication of radiotherapy in patients with metastatic lung cancer. Here we describe the case of a 60-year-old man with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer treated with chemoradiation who presented with fever, chills, and flank pain and was found to have septic shock with polymicrobial bacteremia and fungemia. Subsequent imaging showed evidence of a reno-duodenal fistula. After a failed attempt at endoscopic closure, the patient was not deemed a surgical candidate due to poor performance status and advanced metastatic disease and was transitioned to home hospice care. This report highlights the importance of considering reno-alimentary fistulization in the differential diagnosis of emphysematous pyelonephritis, especially in the setting of radiation therapy and malignancy.
