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

Venous thromboembolic event in pregnancy is a rare but dreaded complication. When it occurs in labour, it presents with sudden severe fetal distress and maternal haemodynamic compromise. We present to you a case where in patient was taken up for emergency caesarean section for severe fetal distress. Intraoperative ECG showed right heart strain. Hence, an immediate bedside echocardiography was done in medical intensive care unit and it picked up a swirling thrombus in right atrium which immediately got dislodged to pulmonary vessels. Postcaesarean, we faced challenge of controlling active bleeding from atonic uterus with non-surgical techniques (Bakri balloon tamponade and uterine artery embolisation) before considering anticoagulation therapy for pulmonary embolism. The patient recovered well after anticoagulation treatment.
