A rare case of misoprostol hypersensitivity.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Medical abortion using mifepristone-misoprostol regimen has been considered to be a safe and effective method for pregnancy termination. Misoprostol is a frequently used well tolerated drug with mild and transient side effects. Considering the safety profile mifepristone-misoprostol regimen has also been advocated by many for home-based medical abortion. However, we report herein a rare case of hypersensitivity reaction to sublingual misoprostol administered for first trimester medical abortion, where timely diagnosis and prompt intervention prevented life-threatening airway obstruction. The possibility of such rare event should be kept in mind and included in patient counselling and information especially for those who opt for outpatient abortion care so that they can seek medical help at the earliest.
