Ectopic Pregnancy in a Levonogestrel-Releasing Intrauterine Device User: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine devices are considered to be a reliable contraceptive option with a low failure rate. The risk of ectopic pregnancy, however, if an unintended pregnancy occurs is significantly higher. In this study, we present a case of a tubal ectopic pregnancy in a woman with a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device in situ for one year. Our case emphasises the importance of having a high index of suspicion in women who have an intrauterine device in situ, presenting with a positive pregnancy test. We also discuss the importance of timely ultrasound examination and the management considerations of similar cases. The importance of urgent review and investigation of women with positive pregnancy test and intrauterine contraceptive device in situ, given the higher possibility of ectopic pregnancy, is highlighted by this case.
