Medical Management of Cesarean Scar Ectopic Pregnancy: A Unique Approach.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
One of the rarest types of ectopic pregnancy, with an incidence of 1:1,800, is cesarean scar ectopic pregnancy. Here, we report the case of a 28-year-old woman who had undergone two previous cesarean sections. She arrived at our labor room with per vaginal spotting and abdominal pain with an ultrasound that revealed a cesarean scar ectopic pregnancy. The initial beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) value upon admission was 27,133 mIU/mL. Her ultrasound findings were confirmed with magnetic resonance imaging. Opting for combined medical management, we successfully treated her using systemic methotrexate and mifepristone, avoiding surgical intervention despite high β-hCG values. There is currently no established standardized treatment for cesarean scar ectopic pregnancies, and we feel that treatment must be tailored to every patient's individual needs. Our experience suggests that combining mifepristone and systemic methotrexate can be an effective approach with better curative effects, emphasizing the need for further research.
