Emergency peripartum hysterectomy: a 13-year review at a tertiary center in kuwait.
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2014. 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
objectiveTo determine the incidence, indications, risk factors, and complications of emergency peripartum hysterectomy (EPH) and to evaluate total versus subtotal hysterectomy for EPH. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis is a retrospective case series involving thorough examination of the files of all women who had EPH between January 2000 and December 2012 in the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Al-Jahra hospital, Kuwait after taking approval from the ethics committee. Incidence, indications, risk factors, type of hysterectomy, and complications of EPH were obtained from patient files.
resultsThere were 63,337 deliveries of which 70.3 % were vaginal deliveries, and 29.6 % were by cesarean section (CS). Sixty-eight women underwent EPH representing an overall incidence of 1 case per 1,000 deliveries. The indications for EPH included abnormal placentation (77.4 %), uterine atony (14.5 %), and uterine rupture (8.1 %). There was one maternal death. Maternal morbidity occurred in 25 (40.3 %) women. The most common complications were mild to severe coagulopathy (19.35 %) and injury to the urinary tract (17.74 %). Injury to the ureter was avoided by placing ureteric stents preoperatively. Our population was significant in having higher rate of CS deliveries (91.9 %), women with prior CS (83.87 %), and high parity (mean 5.8).
conclusionAbnormal placentation was the most common indication to perform EPH. The relative risk of EPH was 27 for CS deliveries as compared to vaginal deliveries. There was no significant difference between subtotal versus total hysterectomy with respect to age, parity, previous CS, operative time, blood transfusion, and intra and post operative complications.
