The wandering Mirena: laparoscopic retrieval.
Article in JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Levonorgestrel-containing intrauterine contraceptive devices, marketed as Mirena (Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Australia) are widely used in contemporary gynecology, primarily as an effective method for contraception and for control of menstrual disorders like menorrhagia and dysmenorrhea. In this article, the authors report 2 cases of Mirena migration following intrauterine insertion by general practitioners (family physicians). In the first case, the contraceptive device had moved to the patient's right iliac fossa just anterior to the cecum and, in the second, within the peritoneal cavity close to the left leaf of the diaphragm. Both patients underwent uneventful laparoscopic retrieval of the devices.
