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
BACKGROUND Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) may be primary or secondary and is defined as the loss of 500 ml or more of blood within the first 24 h after birth. The Bakri balloon tamponade (BBT) is an intrauterine device used as an adjunctive treatment for refractory PPH. The aim of this study was to present the real-world experience from a single center on the effectiveness of the BBT for the treatment of PPH. MATERIAL AND METHODS This cohort study of 279 women was conducted in a real-world setting. Patients' characteristics and clinical outcomes between the BBT Success group and BBT Failure group were analyzed by t test or chi-square test. The primary outcome was the success rate of BBT. The secondary outcomes were the perinatal outcomes. RESULTS The success rate of BBT was 88.89% (248/279). A blood transfusion rate of 65.95% (184/279) was observed. After using the BBT, significant differences were observed in intervention (P<0.001), blood loss (P<0.001), indwelling time of BBT (P<0.001), and blood transfusion (P<0.001) between the Success group and Failure group. The Success group showed greater range of descent in blood loss (991.56.15±13.65 mL in Success group vs 816.23±7.57 mL in Failure group). Of the 31 women with BBT failure, 87.10% (27/31) received uterine artery embolization (UAE), 96.77% (30/31) received blood transfusion, and none required a hysterectomy. CONCLUSIONS The findings from this study from a single center in China supported those from previous studies showing that the BBT was an effective treatment to control PPH.
