Clot Retention and Advanced Age as Predictors of Intervention in Patients Presenting With Gross Hematuria: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background and objective Gross hematuria is a common urologic manifestation that often requires hospitalization and immediate evaluation. Early identification of factors associated with the need for intervention can aid in risk stratification and guide timely clinical management. The objective of this study was to evaluate hospitalized patients with gross hematuria and identify predictors associated with the need for intervention. Methods This retrospective cohort study included adult patients admitted with gross hematuria between January 2023 and December 2025 at Prince Hussein Urology Center, Amman, Jordan, affiliated with the Royal Medical Services. Data were obtained from the Hakeem electronic medical record system. A total of 330 patients were included and categorized into an intervention group (n = 99; 30%) and a nonintervention group (n = 231; 70%). Univariable analysis followed by multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify predictors of intervention. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Among 330 patients admitted with gross hematuria, 99 (30.0%) required urologic intervention. Patients requiring intervention were older (mean age, 66.8 ± 14.9 years) and more frequently had clot retention, anemia, and elevated serum creatinine levels. Bladder tumor was the most common etiology, accounting for 39.4% of cases in the intervention group. On multivariable analysis, clot retention (OR, 4.11; 95% CI, 2.23-7.59; p < 0.001) and increasing age (OR, 1.02; 95% CI, 1.00-1.04; p = 0.028) were independently associated with the need for urologic intervention after multivariable adjustment. Conclusions Clot retention and advancing age are independent predictors of urologic intervention in patients admitted with gross hematuria. Early recognition of these factors may help guide risk stratification and facilitate timely management.
