Velamentous cord insertion ruptured during labour leading to acute fetal blood loss.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. 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
Umbilical cord rupture (UCR) in utero is a very rare and critical emergency that can cause fetal death within minutes. A 38-year-old nulliparous woman was admitted at 39 weeks in labour. Sudden watery vaginal discharge and bleeding with a rapid drop in the fetal heart rate to 60 beats/min necessitated an emergency caesarean section. A male infant weighing 2632 g was delivered 21 min after the onset of bradycardia; Apgar scores were 0 and 1 at 1 and 5 min, respectively. He was extremely pale; the umbilical arterial blood pH was 6.89 and haemoglobin was 9.0 g/dL. The umbilical cord had a velamentous insertion and was lacerated, with haemorrhage in the outer layer of an umbilical artery close to the placental end. The presentation was typical of UCR: vaginal bleeding following the rupture of membranes. Prompt diagnosis of UCR and termination of pregnancy are essential for fetal survival.
