Decidual cast: a rare cause of genital tract obstruction.
Article in Pediatric radiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Decidual cast is a little-known entity characterized by sloughing of the endometrium in several large pieces or in one cylindrical or membranous piece retaining the shape of the uterine cavity. Accounts of the diagnosis are sporadic and have not previously appeared in the pediatric imaging literature. We describe a case of a post-menarchal adolescent girl presenting with abnormal uterine bleeding, severe dysmenorrhea, and imaging features of genital tract obstruction, the cause of which was found to be a large decidual cast during examination under anesthesia. While rare, awareness of this phenomenon should be useful to pediatric imagers as the combination of bleeding and obstructive symptoms produces a confusing picture that may lead to a protracted clinical and imaging course.
