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

Unintended pregnancy following placement of an intrauterine device is a rare occurrence; however, it entails increased obstetrical risks if the device remains within the uterine cavity. This already challenging condition may be exacerbated by additional gynecological conditions, which would be of little or moderate risk on their own. In this report, we present such an exceedingly rare case, namely that of a 42-year-old woman who presented with unintended pregnancy, the presence of an IUD in the endometrial cavity, and a large (>10 cm) uterine fibroid. This report highlights the importance of proper patient counseling on the potential failure of IUDs and the need for frequent follow-up assessment of its placement, along with general gynecological assessment, in order to avoid the occurrence of complex gynecological pathology.
