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

Here, we describe two cases of retained products of conception (RPOC) that were successfully managed with hysteroscopic resection after laparoscopic temporary uterine artery ligation. Both patients were diagnosed with RPOC after early miscarriages. Case 1 was urgently admitted due to massive bleeding and underwent surgery following a blood transfusion. After laparoscopic temporary bilateral uterine artery ligation, the mass was hysteroscopically removed, and the ligation was subsequently released. The patient subsequently achieved an ongoing pregnancy. Case 2 underwent semi-emergency surgery due to intermittent bleeding. Initially, hysteroscopic surgery was planned. However, bleeding resulted in poor visualization of the operative field, and laparoscopic surgery was performed. In many previous reports of RPOC with heavy bleeding, uterine artery embolization was performed. However, there are concerns regarding the effect of a long-term reduction in uterine blood flow on fertility. Our method is not expected to decrease fertility because the ischemic effect is very short.
