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

Vaginal and uterine varices are well documented in pregnancy, although development of vaginal varices in patients with portal hypertension occurs in an exceptionally rare subset. Only 12 cases are reported in the literature; all but 3 of these cases involved patients with a history of hysterectomy, with 1 of the remaining 2 exhibiting partial obliteration of the uterine plexus due to radiation therapy for cervical cancer. We present a case of recurrent vaginal variceal bleeding in a patient with a history of hysterectomy, initially managed with vaginal tamponade and ultimately requiring definitive treatment with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt insertion.
