Association between hysterectomy and kidney stone disease: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007-2018 and Mendelian randomization analysis.
Observational study in World journal of urology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeHysterectomy is one of the most common types of gynecological operations and it is associated with numerous postoperative complications. Few studies have reported a definitive association between hysterectomy and kidney stone disease (KSD). This study aimed to explore whether hysterectomy increases the risk of KSD.
methodsThis is a cross-sectional study that used six continuous cycles of data obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2007 to 2018. The correlations between hysterectomy or age at hysterectomy and the prevalence of KSD were assessed using weighted multivariable-adjusted logistic regression. Further, five methods of two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) were applied to decrease bias and infer causality in the observational study.
resultsAfter adjusting for potential confounders, hysterectomy (OR: 1.37, 95% CI 1.04-1.81) was found to be positively associated with the prevalence of KSD, whereas age at hysterectomy was found to be negatively associated with the prevalence of KSD (OR: 0.96, 95% CI: 0.94-0.98). In the inverse-variance weighted method, MR analyses suggested that genetically predicted hysterectomy is causally associated with a higher risk of KSD (OR: 11.961, 95% CI 1.12-1.28E2).
conclusionsHysterectomy could increase the risk of KSD. Younger age at hysterectomy is associated with a higher risk of KSD. Further prospective cohort studies with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up times are needed.
