Labor Analgesia in a Patient With Beals Syndrome: A Case Report of Management Challenges.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Beals syndrome, also known as Beals-Hetch syndrome or congenital contractural arachnodactyly, is an autosomal dominantly inherited, rare connective tissue disorder characterized by flexion contractures, arachnodactyly, camptodactyly, severe kyphoscoliosis, and, less frequently, cardiovascular features. We describe the successful management of labor analgesia in a pregnant woman with Beals syndrome. During labor, a combined spinal/epidural technique was performed uneventfully, and intermittent top-ups were administered as needed at lower-than-usual volumes. Eutocic delivery occurred without complications, and both mother and baby were discharged three days later. Given the sparse literature about obstetric patients with Beals syndrome, we summarize the main anesthetic challenges and suggested approaches.
