Epidural analgesia for the treatment of colic attack with retrocaval ureter in late pregnancy complicated with marginal placenta previa: a case report.
Article in JA clinical reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundRetrocaval ureter was diagnosed in a woman complaining of ureteric pain in the last trimester of pregnancy. We describe the rationale behind the administration of epidural analgesia for her colic attack. CASE PRESENTATION: A 41-year-old pregnant woman was hospitalized with a diagnosis of a marginal placenta previa at 34 weeks and 5 days of pregnancy. Her right ureter encircled the dorsal aspect of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and was compressed by a growing fetus, causing hydronephrosis. Her right lower back pain was exacerbated every day, till an epidural catheter was inserted. Her estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and hematocrit worsened, and an elective cesarean section was performed.
conclusionEpidural analgesia only provided pain relief for a few days. When a pregnant woman presents with a retrocaval ureter and severe pain, short-term epidural analgesia should be considered after evaluating the complex medical condition and size of the fetus.
