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

Renal vein thrombosis (RVT) and inferior vena cava thrombosis are extremely rare conditions, yet potentially life-threatening complications of pyelonephritis. This report describes the case of a 66-year-old patient with undiagnosed pyelonephritis, who subsequently developed RVT with an extension to the inferior vena cava. The management of the condition involved a multidisciplinary approach that resulted in nephrectomy with an extraction of the thrombus through cavotomy. This case report emphasizes the necessity of early recognition of RVT owing to pyelonephritis and complex management of this condition to prevent the adverse outcomes of impending complications.
