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

Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN), a severe acute necrotizing infection, is one of the most serious types of urinary tract infections, with high rates of kidney loss and mortality. Diabetes and urinary tract obstruction are diagnosed before EPN. However, it is uncommon for EPN to occur secondary to gastrointestinal tract diseases. The present study is a case report of a 57-year-old woman who was diagnosed with EPN. Based on the patient's condition and wishes, drainage and medication were used as treatment. The patient's vital signs remained stable, clinical symptoms improved and inflammatory markers gradually decreased. However, drainage fluid did not decrease, and even fecal water-like drainage fluid appeared, which led to further investigations during treatment that resulted in a diagnosis of colon adenocarcinoma. Through this case, clinical doctors can be made aware that, for patients with EPN of uncertain cause, colon lesions should also be considered.
