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

Hydatid disease of the pelvis is a rare form of echinococcosis infection and seldom occurs in bilateral ureteric obstruction resulting in hydroureteronephrosis. A male patient in his 50s presented with a history of progressive abdominal distension and pain since two months. The ultrasonography revealed a large multiloculated cystic lesion in the pelvis, resulting in the compression of bilateral ureters and thus leading to bilateral hydroureteronephrosis. The case presents a rare yet clinically relevant manifestation of hydatid disease of the pelvis and points to the necessity to consider hydatid cyst along with the list of differentiating cysts of the pelvis causing obstructive uropathy.
