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

A heterotopic pregnancy is a rare, life-threatening condition in which an intrauterine and ectopic pregnancy occur simultaneously. The incidence of these pregnancies is increasing as the use of assisted reproductive technology and ovulation-inducing agents becomes more common and accessible. A 31-year-old woman with polycystic ovarian syndrome conceived following clomiphene citrate-induced ovulation and was later diagnosed with a heterotopic pregnancy at 10 weeks 2 days of intrauterine gestation and 9 weeks 2 days of ectopic gestation by transvaginal ultrasound following painless vaginal bleeding and rectal pain. The ectopic pregnancy was managed surgically, and the intrauterine pregnancy progressed to a full-term vaginal delivery. This case calls attention to the importance of physicians maintaining a high index of suspicion for heterotopic pregnancy in patients undergoing ovulation induction, despite reassuring imaging and nonspecific symptoms.
