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

Ureteroarterial fistula (UAF) is a rare but potentially life-threatening cause of hematuria that often presents with diagnostic uncertainty. We report a 62-year-old woman with prior cystectomy with ileal conduit urinary diversion, pelvic radiation, and chronic nephroureteral stents (NUS) who presented with intermittent hematuria. In the interventional radiology suite, following NUS removal she developed massive hemorrhage and cardiac arrest. A massive transfusion protocol was initiated, and angiography immediately after NUS removal demonstrated active arterial extravasation. The NUS was reinserted for tamponade, and she underwent successful endovascular repair. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of UAF and the importance of multidisciplinary management.
