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

Renal arteriovenous malformations (rAVMs) are rare vascular anomalies, presenting with gross hematuria and requiring prompt diagnosis and management. We reported a case of a middle-aged male presenting with persistent and unexplained gross hematuria. Initial cystoscopy revealed a significant burden in the urinary bladder without any identifiable bleeding source. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography followed by CT angiography demonstrated a vascular nidus with early venous filling at the lower pole of the left kidney, consistent with rAVMs. The patient had a successful selective transcatheter embolization involving polyvinyl alcohol particles, coils, and a lipiodol-based embolic agent. Postembolization angiography confirmed a substantial reduction in arteriovenous shunting, with the preservation of renal parenchyma. The patient reported transient postprocedure flank pain and hematuria; however, hemoglobin levels and renal function remained stable. This situation highlights the significance of evaluating vascular causes in cases of unexplained hematuria and supports the endovascular embolization as a viable, kidney-preserving treatment option.
