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

Rectus sheath haematoma (RSH) is an uncommon but potentially serious condition in pregnancy, often associated with anticoagulant use. Diagnosis can be challenging as it can mimic other obstetric or surgical emergencies. With the increasing use of low molecular weight heparins in pregnancy, awareness of this complication is essential. We present a case of enoxaparin-induced RSH in a 42-year-old grand multiparous woman with a history of four previous caesarean sections, who presented at 36 +3 weeks of gestation with signs and symptoms of an acute abdomen. A significant drop in haemoglobin levels, worsening clinical symptoms, and her obstetrics history prompted us to proceed with a caesarean section, during which an RSH was identified. The caesarean section was completed successfully, and the RSH was managed conservatively. She made a progressive and satisfactory recovery with no further complications. By sharing our experience, we highlight the diagnostic and management challenges of this condition to improve clinical awareness among obstetricians.
