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

Background: Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a rare but highly fatal complication during delivery. It occurs when amniotic fluid suddenly enters the maternal circulation, causing acute multi-organ failure. Prompt recognition and management are crucial for improving survival rates. Case Presentation: We reported a 37-year-old woman at 39 weeks gestation who developed AFE during labor induction. The patient presented with sudden cyanosis, dyspnea, and restlessness, followed by cardiac arrest during emergency cesarean section. Postoperative refractory postpartum hemorrhage (RPPH) necessitated multiple interventions, including hysterectomy and vascular embolization. Subsequent laparotomy revealed a subcapsular hematoma with linear tear in the left hepatic lobe, which was successfully repaired. The patient required massive transfusion and intensive care but eventually stabilized. Conclusion: This case involved a life-threatening AFE complicated by cardiac arrest, RPPH, and traumatic liver rupture. The patient was successfully treated through multidisciplinary collaboration. It highlights three key aspects of critical maternal care: rapid recognition, damage control, and systemic resuscitation.
