Bilateral tubal ectopic pregnancy following intra uterine insemination (IUI): A case report.
Article in Iranian journal of reproductive medicine, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe incidence of ectopic pregnancy varies between 1.5-2% of all pregnancies. Bilateral tubal ectopic pregnancy is rare. It may occur in 1 per 200 000 pregnancies. CASE: This is a case report of 25 year-old woman who underwent intra uterine insemination (IUI), because of tubal factor infertility (unilateral). On the 30(th) day after the IUI she complained from pelvic pain and vaginal bleeding. Pelvic ultrasound showed bilateral tubal ectopic pregnancy with fluid in Douglas Pouch and empty uterine cavity. Exploratory laparotomy, left salpingectomy, and right salpingostomy were performed on the same day of admission.
conclusionThe above case suggests that cases presenting with infertility and ectopic pregnancy should be followed very closely with β-hCG and or Trans Vaginal Sonography (TVS) to exclude double ectopic. So, as in this case, early diagnosis is essential for prevention of maternal morbidity and mortality.
