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

Congenital uterine arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are an uncommon cause of vaginal bleeding in women of reproductive age. In the medical literature, there are few reports of congenital uterine AVMs. This report describes a 23-year-old woman who presented with intermittent vaginal bleeding following a vaginal delivery two years prior. Initially, a molar pregnancy was suspected, but further assessment with magnetic resonance imaging revealed a diagnosis of right uterine AVM. The patient underwent uterine artery embolization, which was repeated three months later. At two-year follow-up, the patient remained free of symptoms. This case highlights the importance of considering congenital uterine AVM as a potential cause of vaginal bleeding and emphasizes the need for clinical examination and radiologic investigations to establish an accurate diagnosis. Treatment depends on disease severity, comorbidities, patient age, and fertility desires.
