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 is a rare but intriguing disease, which poses a high risk for pregnant women and for intrauterine pregnancy. Clinically, it is mainly characterized by pain and vaginal bleeding. b-hCG serum dosage is used to detect the pregnancy, but transvaginal ultrasound is needed to diagnose heterotopic pregnancy. From all the risk factors, the assisted reproductive treatments represent the most important, especially when multiple embryos are transferred. Patients with a heterotopic pregnancy are at risk of having a spontaneous or medically induced abortion, and for this reason appropriate and tailored treatment should be considered, pursuing the optimal risk/benefit ratio. Although conservative treatments are available in the case of only extrauterine pregnancy, such as methotrexate, often the laparoscopic approach seems unavoidable in heterotopic pregnancy. To preserve the intrauterine pregnancy, a conservative treatment is remarkable, both salpingotomy or salpingostomy. In this case report, we present a successful laparoscopic treatment of an extrauterine pregnancy with the prosecution of the intrauterine pregnancy up to the third trimester. In particular, a 25-year-old girl referred to the Villa Sofia Cervello Hospital complaining of abdominopelvic pain and vaginal bleeding for 2 days. The salpingectomy approach was performed, and every anatomical piece was sent for histopathology.
