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

Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a rare but potentially catastrophic complication during pregnancy. The most common presenting symptoms of AFE are cardiac arrest, hemodynamic instability, and profound hemorrhage. Here, we present a case of a 28-year-old female with a past medical history of anemia, gestational diabetes, hypothyroidism, anxiety, and depression, presenting for induction of labor for cholestasis of pregnancy. The labor course was complicated by sudden cardiac arrest and resuscitation, followed by an emergent bedside peri-cardiac arrest cesarean section. Subsequently, the patient developed coagulopathy, uterine atony, and bleeding from the vagina and cervix. The AFE protocol was initiated, and the care team proceeded with a hysterectomy. Supportive treatment correcting for metabolic acid-base disturbances and coagulopathies was maintained. The patient was stabilized for air transport to a higher level of care.
