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

Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is a widely used surgical treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and it is associated with a low incidence of severe complications. We report a rare case of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) following HoLEP in a 71-year-old male. Shortly after the surgery, the patient developed altered consciousness, jaundice, and multiorgan failure, necessitating intensive care and renal replacement therapy. HUS was identified as the underlying cause. After a month-long hospitalization, the patient showed progressive renal recovery. This report underscores the importance of early recognition, multidisciplinary management, and close follow-up in achieving favorable outcomes in rare post-HoLEP complications.
