Placenta accreta spectrum as a complication of transabdominal cerclage.
Article in BMJ case reports, 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
Cervical cerclage, particularly transabdominal cerclage (TAC), is a last resort surgical procedure to manage cervical incompetence. Despite its high success rate, TAC carries inherent risks and can result in complications. Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorder, a rare iatrogenic condition linked to previous uterine surgeries, especially caesarean sections, poses a significant risk of severe obstetric haemorrhage during delivery, often leading to maternal and neonatal morbidity.This case presents a woman in her 30s with a history of cervical insufficiency who underwent an abdominal cerclage. An uneventful pregnancy ensued, leading to a planned caesarean delivery. However, her subsequent pregnancy was complicated by cerclage erosion, uterine scar dehiscence and ultimately PAS disorder. These complications were confirmed through transvaginal ultrasound and MRI assessments prenatally and on histopathology after birth. A caesarean hysterectomy was performed at 32 weeks due to threatened preterm labour. Both mother and her infant experienced an uncomplicated postpartum and neonatal recovery.
