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 device (IUD) migration is a rare complication of IUD placement. The current case is of a 32-year-old lady who presented with pregnancy following IUD failure. Subsequent imaging revealed intravesical migration of the IUD. A cystoscopic evaluation revealed a bladder stone (encrusted IUD), with no breach in the bladder mucosa and no evidence of a fistulous opening. The encrustation was broken down, and an intact IUD was retrieved. This video report shows the management of a migrated IUD complicated by a bladder stone using cystoscopy that not only allowed for a combined diagnostic and therapeutic approach to the extraction of the IUD but also provided information regarding the involvement of the bladder wall and confirmed no extravesical protrusion of the device.
