Heterotopic tubal pregnancy with a naturally conceived live twin intrauterine pregnancy in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus: A case report.
Article in Case reports in women's health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Heterotopic pregnancy (HP) is defined as the simultaneous occurrence of an intrauterine and extrauterine gestation. Risk factors contributing to this condition are similar to those which contribute to ectopic pregnancy. While a triple heterotopic gestation through natural conception is uncommon, here we present the case of a patient with spontaneous intrauterine twins and a concurrent tubal extrauterine gestation, where the patient also had systemic lupus erythematosus. During the seventh week of gestation, the patient presented with acute abdomen signs and hemodynamic instability; a decision was taken to perform an emergency laparotomy. Haemoperitoneum, a total torsion of the right ovary with salpinx, a ruptured tubal pregnancy and subsequent necrosis were found intraoperatively. The patient was discharged on the sixth postoperative day and monitored throughout her whole pregnancy, with the intrauterine pregnancy progressing uneventfully. Two healthy neonates were delivered by cesarean section at 36 weeks of gestation. In conclusion, physicians treating women of reproductive age should be aware of possible HP, even in the absence of risk factors.
