Renal arteriovenous fistula revealed by severe hypertension during pregnancy.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2013. 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
A 35-year-old woman developed severe hypertension resistant to antihypertensive treatment during the second trimester of pregnancy at 24 weeks gestation. Doppler ultrasonography achieved the diagnosis of idiopathic renal arteriovenous fistula in the left kidney associated with parenchymal hypoperfusion. A Caesarean section was performed 6 days after the diagnosis because of severe pre-eclampsia. After delivery, the symptoms disappeared. Fistula persisted after follow-up for over 1 year but with a dramatic decrease in its blood flow and normalisation of the left kidney hemodynamics. Nevertheless, embolisation was performed without complications to prevent recurrence during the next pregnancy expected by the patient.
