Abdominal pregnancy: a case report and review of 17 cases.

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
purposeTo analyze the clinical characteristics of abdominal pregnancy, and to explore the diagnosis and prognosis of different treatment methods.
methodsThe cases of patients with abdominal pregnancy admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 1, 1989 and January 1, 2021, were analyzed retrospectively.
resultsThe median age of 17 patients was 34 years (22-42 years); the median gestational duration was 57 days (from 41 days to 32 weeks). Among all 17 patients, 15 (88.24%) presented with abdominal pain. The implantation sites of the gestational sac included the bladder peritoneal reflection, anterior wall of the rectum, omentum, serous membrane of the uterus, and inside or on the surface of uterosacral ligament. In all, only 29.41% cases (5/17) were diagnosed before surgery. All 17 patients were treated via surgery. Further, 58.82% (10/17) patients recovered without complications, 29.41% (5/17) developed fever, 5.88% (1/17) underwent reoperation because of intra-abdominal bleeding, and 5.88% (1/17) developed double lower limb venous thrombosis. All 17 patients survived.
conclusionThe preoperative diagnosis rate of abdominal pregnancy is low. Planting sites in the pelvic peritoneum and pelvic organs are more common than the others. Laparoscopic surgery in the first trimester of pregnancy can achieve better therapeutic effects. However, the blood supply of the placenta should be fully evaluated before surgery. When it is expected that attempts to remove the placenta will cause fatal bleeding, the placenta can be left in place, but long-term close follow-up should be paid attention to.
