Uterine Artery Embolization in a Patient With Large Uterine Fibroids.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
A woman in her 20s with no past medical history presented to the emergency department with a 4-day history of abdominal pain. Imaging revealed several large uterine fibroids that compressed various intra-abdominal structures. Options of observation, medical management, surgical management with abdominal myomectomy, and uterine artery embolization (UAE) were discussed. The patient was counseled about the associated risks of UAE and myomectomy. Since both procedures have a risk of infertility, the patient elected to proceed with uterine artery embolization due to the less invasive nature of the procedure. She was discharged after one day in the hospital following the procedure and readmitted three days later for suspected endometritis. The patient was treated with antibiotics for five days and discharged home. Eleven months post-procedure, the patient became pregnant. The patient had achieved a full-term delivery at 39 weeks and two days via a cesarean section secondary to a breech presentation.
