Postpartum Hemorrhage and Tranexamic Acid: A Literature Review.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 review aims to explore the postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) burden and the efficacy of prophylactic tranexamic acid (TXA) in PPH and recent indications of TXA. A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted using a combination of Medical Subject Headings keywords including "Postpartum haemorrhage," "Tranexamic acid," and "Cesarean section." PPH has been explored for epidemiology, risk factors, and pathophysiology in the first part of the article. Recent indications of TXA, obstetric indications, and the role of TXA as prophylaxis for PPH are discussed in the second part of this article. TXA has many indications apart from obstetric indications and shows a significant effect in controlling bleeding. Furthermore, TXA is more efficient in preventing PPH if administered during the final stage of labor and is a valuable option for managing obstetric bleeding.
