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

Incarceration of the gravid uterus is a rare and serious obstetric complication that can lead to severe complications. We present the case of a 32-year-old woman (gravida 5, para 2022) at 12 weeks and 5 days of gestation who presented with urinary retention and lower abdominal pain. Despite attempts at positional changes and manipulative repositioning under epidural anesthesia, the incarceration of the gravid uterus persisted. Subsequent intervention under general anesthesia involved partially reducing the uterine fundus into the abdominal cavity and using gauze strips in the posterior vaginal fornix to maintain traction. In addition, the bilateral round ligaments of the uterus were sutured to release the incarcerated uterus via laparoscopy. Vaginal gauze packing under general anesthesia may be a beneficial intervention for addressing cases of an incarcerated uterus, particularly in patients in whom passive maneuvers and manual pressure fail to resolve the condition.
