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

Gonadal vein thrombosis (GVT) is a very rare complication of uterine fibroid embolization. The risk factors for GVT include pregnancy, especially after caesarean-section, oral contraceptive use, underlying malignancy, any pelvic surgery including embolization procedures, pelvic inflammatory disease, inflammatory bowel disease and idiopathic causes. We report a case of a patient who underwent extensive uterine fibroid embolization and presented to the Emergency Department within twenty-four hours, with fever, and severe abdominal pain. Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis with intravenous (IV) contrast confirmed a partial right gonadal vein thrombosis. After extensive work up, and no alternative causes found, a diagnosis of procedure related GVT was made. After review of the literature and discussion with hematology consultants, she was started on anticoagulant therapy. Her symptoms resolved and she remained on anticoagulation for a duration of three months.
