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

Sigmoid volvulus and uterine torsion are both rare and challenging conditions in pregnancy, and the coexistence of these conditions is particularly difficult to diagnose. Herein, we report a case of a 38-year-old pregnant woman at 30 weeks of gestation, with a history of two prior cesarean sections, who presented with severe abdominal pain, vomiting, and constipation, and was eventually diagnosed with both sigmoid volvulus and uterine torsion during surgery. Clinicians should consider the possibility of bowel obstruction when a pregnant woman presents with severe abdominal pain, vomiting, and constipation, as early diagnosis is crucial. Early imaging, prompt intervention, and a multidisciplinary approach are essential for preventing severe maternal and fetal complications.
