Emphysematous Pyelonephritis Caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae Complicated With Multiple Metastatic Abscesses and Transient Respiratory Arrest: A Case Report.

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.
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
Emphysematous pyelonephritis (EPN) is a life-threatening urinary tract infection that often requires prompt source control, including drainage, in addition to intensive supportive care. We report a severe case in which immediate invasive source control measures were not feasible; however, the patient survived with intensive multidisciplinary management. A 50-year-old man with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus presented with back pain and was diagnosed with left-sided EPN based on computed tomography. Owing to his overall critical condition, invasive renal or prostatic drainage was not performed. Blood and urine cultures revealed
