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

Calcium oxalate (CaOx) stones are the most prevalent form of nephrolithiasis and are characterized by a substantial risk of recurrence. Their pathogenesis arises through distinct etiological pathways, including idiopathic metabolic susceptibility, monogenic disorders such as primary hyperoxaluria, enteric hyperoxaluria, and toxicant-associated injury, and is shaped by two primary papillary mechanisms: Randall's plaque formation and ductal plugging. A central translational limitation is that most experimental systems, particularly chemically induced rodent models, rely on acute hyperoxaluria. These models capture crystal nucleation, aggregation, and deposition but do not adequately recapitulate the decades-long natural history of idiopathic CaOx stone disease in humans or the gradual formation of Randall's plaques. This review systematically evaluates CaOx stone models in mice, rats,
