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

This is a case report of a single patient who had two episodes of obstetric hemorrhages, first in the puerperium and second one post medical termination of pregnancy for which the patient had to be managed by uterine artery embolization (UAE). This is a rare case in which this interventional radiological procedure proved life-saving twice in her obstetric history. A 29-year-old woman with an obstetric history of para two and living two (P2L2), presented with a complaint of per-vaginum (p/v) spotting with a history of recent intake of pills for medical termination of pregnancy (MTP). Retained products of conception (RPOC) were ruled out radiologically and she was managed conservatively. She subsequently presented with acute uterine bleed with severe anemia and lethargy. After initial resuscitation and failing of conservative therapy, she was promptly taken up for bilateral UAE. She had also undergone UAE 5 years ago during her puerperal period. Uterine artery embolization is a safe and effective life-saving procedure to control torrential uterine bleed and should be considered when the conservative approach has failed.
