Thrombotic pulmonary embolism of inferior vena cava during caesarean section: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2022. 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
backgroundThrombotic pulmonary embolism (TPE) is one of the most critical diseases in obstetrics but is rarely reported in caesarean section (CS) because TPE patients in CS have a high risk of death and are difficult to diagnose. This case report of TPE during CS was recorded by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and can provide a reference for the differential diagnosis of critical illnesses in CS. CASE SUMMARY: A 37-year-old pregnant woman with rheumatic heart disease (RHD), gravida 5 and para 1 (G5P1), presented for emergency CS at 33 wk and 3 d of gestation under general anesthesia because of acute heart failure, pulmonary hypertension and arrhythmia. After placental removal during CS, TTE revealed a nascent thrombus in the inferior vena cava (IVC) that elongated, detached and fragmented leading to acute thromboembolic events and acute TPE. This report presents the whole process and details of TPE during CS and successful rescue without any sequelae in the patient. This case gives us new ideas for the diagnosis of death or cardiovascular accidents during CS in pregnant women with heart disease and the detailed presentation of the rapid development of TPE may also elucidate new ideas for treatment. This case also highlighted the importance of prophylactic anticoagulation in the management of heart disease during pregnancy.
conclusionPregnancy with heart failure could trigger inferior vena cava (IVC)-origin TPE during CS. Detection and timely treatment can avoid serious consequences.
