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

backgroundUterine inversion is a clinical condition characterized by the folding of the uterine fundus into the uterine cavity or beyond the cervix. Chronic uterine inversions that manifest seven years after delivery are extremely rare, despite the fact that both acute and chronic uterine inversions are infrequent. Unlike uterine inversion during parturition, which can be promptly managed, chronic uterine inversion poses a diagnostic and management challenge. We, herein, report a patient who was managed and followed at our institution for chronic uterine inversion. CASE PRESENTATION: A 28-year-old African female who was referred to our institution with complaints of secondary infertility for seven years, abnormal vaginal bleeding, and lower abdominal pain for 12 months with a mass-like sensation in the vagina. At presentation, she had pale conjunctiva and a protruded, rubbery mass in the cervix with indistinguishable cervical OS on vaginal examination. The patient was resuscitated with intravenous fluids and three units of blood, after which Haultain's procedure was performed. After 16 months on a contraceptive, she was able to conceive and deliver a healthy neonate.

conclusionSevere anemia can rarely be a presenting symptom of chronic uterine inversion. Following a surgical procedure for chronic uterus inversion, a successful delivery is possible if thorough follow-up is carried out.
