Transient osteoporosis in the third trimester of pregnancy: A case report.
Article in Case reports in women's health, 2022. 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
A 40-year-old woman presented to the emergency department at 35 weeks of gestation with a six-week history of progressive bilateral hip pain and a severe decline in mobility. Initial investigations were unremarkable and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated bilateral and extensive femoral bone marrow oedema suggestive of transient osteoporosis (TOP). The patient was managed conservatively and underwent an elective caesarean section at 37 weeks of gestation. There was a gradual postpartum improvement of the patient's symptoms and she attained independent mobility by four weeks postpartum. TOP is a rare presentation and its true prevalence is likely underestimated owing to the diagnostic challenges of the syndrome, which can cause significant delays and often missed diagnoses. It is important for clinicians to be aware of TOP in pregnant women presenting with hip pain and for them to initiate early multidisciplinary involvement to guide diagnosis and management.
