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

Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are commonly used, effective forms of long-acting removable contraceptives that may be inserted by primary care providers. Adverse outcomes with copper IUDs specifically have been extensively documented; however, there is little guidance on whether to offer an IUD to a patient who has already experienced adverse outcomes related to IUDs. In this case report, our patient experienced three complications with three different copper IUDs, including a spontaneous expulsion, a fragmented device, and a retained device in addition to two unintended pregnancies. In our view, a different form of contraception should be offered for a patient that has already experienced multiple adverse outcomes related to IUDs.
