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

An 11-year-old male neutered domestic shorthair cat was evaluated for severe hematuria causing urethral obstruction and marked anemia. Percutaneous cystoscopy identified hemorrhagic jets of urine issuing from the right ureterovesical junction (UVJ), raising concern for renal hematuria. Focal bleeding was observed from the bladder wall and suspected to be iatrogenic. Under cystoscopic and fluoroscopic guidance, a 2.5 Fr nephrostomy tube was advanced retrograde over a guidewire to mid-ureter and used to infuse silver nitrate and povidone iodine into the renal pelvis. A urethral catheter was used to perform sclerotherapy in the bladder. The cat showed substantial improvement in microscopic hematuria, but recurrence of hematuria was observed 80 days later. Repeat percutaneous cystoscopy and examination of the UVJs showed multiple jets of normal urine and newly noted bladder wall nodules, diagnosed as urothelial carcinoma. We describe successful renal sclerotherapy that could be refined and used for future cases of renal hematuria in cats.
