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

Chyluria is a rare condition caused by abnormal communication between the lymphatic system and the urinary tract. We report a case of recurrent bilateral chyluria in a 65-year-old woman who previously underwent lymphatic embolization but developed persistent symptoms. Retrograde pyelography demonstrated bilateral renal lymphatic reflux. The patient was treated with bilateral renal pelvic instillation sclerotherapy (RPIS) using povidone iodine for three consecutive days. Symptoms resolved rapidly and no complications occurred. The patient remained symptom-free during 36 months of follow-up. This case highlights RPIS as a minimally invasive therapeutic alternative for recurrent chyluria after failed lymphatic embolization.
