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

Introduction: We present a case of adult vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), in which video-urodynamics was employed to facilitate both diagnosis and treatment planning. Case Presentation: A 65-year-old man with a history of recurrent pyelonephritis and progressive renal dysfunction was referred to our hospital with a dilated right ureter observed on computed tomography. Video-urodynamics demonstrated generally preserved bladder storage and voiding functions, accompanied by bilateral VUR. Given the severity of the VUR despite normal bladder capacity and compliance, primary VUR was suspected. Anti-reflux surgery using the Cohen method was performed, resulting in complete resolution of the bilateral reflux. Conclusion: Video-urodynamics are particularly valuable for diagnosing VUR and guiding optimal management in older adults, who may present with underlying urinary dysfunction.
