1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Molar pregnancy or a hydatidiform mole, also referred to as gestational trophoblastic disease, is an abnormal type of pregnancy, in which a potentially anomalous egg is abnormally fertilized resulting in a subsequently non-viable conceptus becoming an enlarged growth in the uterus with dangerous complications. These moles can occur as either complete or partial moles, each with its own unique features. In this article, we report a case of a pregnant woman who presented to her primary care doctor with the chief complaint of shortness of breath. Upon further questioning, she was found to have slight vaginal bleeding. Further workup of the unexplained bleeding revealed a small, yet concerning molar pregnancy, and led to our encounter with the patient on her operating day for a dilation and curettage. As these moles are somewhat rare occurrences, this case report aims to describe the condition, with a focus on management and outcomes.
