Spontaneous Spinal Epidural Hematoma During Pregnancy: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH) during pregnancy is an extremely rare neurological emergency, often presenting with sudden neck pain and progressive limb weakness. This report describes a 26-year-old pregnant woman at 26 weeks of gestation who developed paraplegia and severe muscle weakness without prior trauma. MRI revealed a cervical epidural hematoma, leading to an emergency C6 and C7 laminectomy. Despite surgery, the patient remained quadriplegic, with follow-up MRI showing persistent myelomalacia. This case highlights the challenges of diagnosing and managing SSEH during pregnancy, emphasizing the need for prompt intervention and ongoing research to improve outcomes for affected patients.
