Splenic vein rupture in pregnancy: A case report and systematic review of the literature.
Synthesis in International journal of gynaecology and obstetrics: the official organ of the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Splenic vein aneurysm (SVA) rupture is a rare clinical entity, with few case reports detailing its occurrence during pregnancy. We describe a case of a SVA rupture and present a systematic review of the literature in relation to splenic vein rupture, with or without aneurysm. Our case was of a 30-year-old woman, Para 4 at 37 weeks' gestation who presented with significant abdominal pain and subsequent maternal collapse. Massive intra-abdominal hemorrhage was identified, with splenic vessel rupture suspected. A splenectomy and partial pancreatectomy were performed along with massive blood product transfusion. There was both maternal and fetal survival with no long-term sequelae at follow-up. Histological examination of the spleen and its vessels noted a SVA rupture. In a subsequent systematic review of the literature, we identified 10 cases of splenic vein rupture with only two previously documented cases of SVA rupture in pregnancy. Maternal and fetal survival has only been reported in two cases of splenic vein rupture, with ours being a third.
