Uterine incarceration: a rare diagnosis in non-pregnant women.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Uterine incarceration (UI) is a rare complication in non-pregnant women. A woman in her 50s presented to the emergency department with acute urinary retention and paresis of the right inferior limb. A neurological exam suggested a decrease in the right lower limb strength. On gynaecological exam, the cervix was displaced anteriorly and the cul de sac was obliterated with a pelvic mass. CA 19.9 and CA 125 levels were increased. The MRI of the pelvis confirmed an elongated and anteriorly displaced cervix compressing the urethra and the vesical neck due to a uterine mass. A diagnosis of UI was made and an abdominal hysterectomy with adhesiolysis was suggested as the treatment option. Six months after surgery the patient had no urinary complaints and the neurological exam was normal. UI should be considered in women with urinary and neurological symptoms. A delay in diagnosis may lead to significant morbidity.
