A case of spontaneous heterotopic pregnancy in natural conception complicated with hemoperitoneum.
Article in Heliyon, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Heterotopic pregnancy, defined as simultaneous intrauterine and ectopic gestations, is an uncommon occurrence in women who conceive without assisted reproduction techniques. We present the case of 28 years old female with strong family history of multiple gestations, who presented with acute severe abdominal pain and diagnosed with spontaneous heterotopic pregnancy in natural conception. Ectopic pregnancy was successfully removed surgically to conserve the uterine pregnancy. After one week, patient presented with vaginal bleeding and diagnosed with missed abortion and lost her desired uterine pregnancy. This case report discusses the significance of early diagnosis and treatment of heterotopic pregnancy to avoid both fetal and maternal morbidity and mortality. Practitioners should carry a high index of suspicion for heterotopic pregnancy in patients presenting with common symptoms and carry a family history of multiple gestation pregnancies.
