Incarcerated and Transmigrated Intrauterine Contraceptive Devices Managed at a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital of East Delhi: A 5-Year Retrospective Analysis.
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2019. 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
purpose of the studyIntrauterine contraceptive devices
methodsA cross-sectional retrospective analysis of 5 years (January 2013-December 2017) was done, and the case records from Medical Record Department and Family Planning Unit of our institution were analysed.
resultsTotal number of IUCD insertions done in last 5 years (from January 2013 to December 2017) in our institution was 4557. Misplaced IUCDs requiring surgical interventions were 71 (1.6%) out of which 63 (88.7%) were incomplete perforations or embedded and 8 (11.3%) were complete perforations or transmigrated IUCDs. Transmigration sites were omentum, uterovesical fold, mesentery and bladder. Laparotomy was needed in 4 (5.6%), and 2 (2.8%) needed each laparoscopy and cystoscopy. Main risk factors identified were postpartum previous on or two caesarean sections, low parity, grade of operator and IUCD and uterocervical length discrepancy.
conclusionThe risk of perforation should not be a reason to defer IUCD insertion and every effort should be made to bring down its failure and complication rates.
