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

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the gold standard for large and complex renal stone despite other available modalities. PCNL techniques have been evolved with many modifications and innovation in the recent decade. It can be safely performed in elderly patient and children with highest stone-free rate (SFR) among all other modalities. However, as PCNL is a blind procedure, chance of bleeding is very high than other surgical modalities. If patient already had, hematological problem, then perioperative risk of bleeding increased significantly. We are presenting few cases of PCNL in thrombocytosis child and young adult. This is a retrospective analysis of four renal stone patients from 2017 to 2024. Surgical outcomes such as SFR and complications were analyzed and discussed. There were no major perioperative bleeding problems in our study. Mild-to-moderate thrombocytosis does not pose extra risk to bleeding. However, hematology opinion and informed decision are needed for risk stratification before performing PCNL.
