Two Cases of Bilateral Ureteral Metastases From Prostate Cancer Initially Presenting With Postrenal Acute Kidney Injury.

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
Introduction: Although prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening has facilitated early detection of prostate cancer, approximately 5% of patients still present with distant metastases at diagnosis. Ureteral metastasis from prostate cancer is extremely rare. Case Presentation: We report two cases of clinically diagnosed bilateral ureteral metastases in which postrenal acute kidney injury caused by bilateral hydronephrosis preceded the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Histopathological confirmation by ureteroscopic biopsy was not possible in either case. However, marked improvement in ureteral obstruction following initiation of androgen deprivation therapy supported the diagnosis. Conclusion: Bilateral ureteral metastases from prostate cancer may present with acute kidney injury, and therapeutic response to androgen deprivation therapy may provide an important diagnostic clue when pathological confirmation is difficult.
