Neglected massive multinodular goiter during pregnancy with dyspnea and successful normal delivery: A case report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Key Clinical Message: Prompt coordinated care enables vaginal delivery for severe goiter-induced airway compression in late pregnancy when expectant management is precluded. Abstract: Long-standing neglected multinodular goiter rarely causes life-threatening airway compression in late pregnancy. Most cases report cesarean delivery to relieve respiratory distress. Vaginal birth may also be possible, but the evidence is limited. A 30-year-old woman with a 7-year goiter history developed severe dyspnea at 34 weeks gestation. Despite the risks, labor was induced by urgent decompression. She vaginally delivered a premature but healthy infant. Her breathing improved after delivery. She later underwent an uncomplicated thyroidectomy. With careful selection and monitoring, vaginal delivery can be considered for goiter-induced respiratory compromise when expectant management is precluded. This case demonstrates successful urgent decompression and favorable maternal-fetal outcomes are possible with a coordinated approach despite the high-risk scenario.
