Epidural Anesthesia in a Patient With Turner Syndrome: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Turner syndrome (TS) is associated with short stature, cardiac abnormalities, and musculoskeletal deformity, which pose unique obstetric anesthesia challenges in the small proportion of TS patients who go through spontaneous or assisted pregnancy. There is very limited data available on the anesthetic management of these patients. This case report presents the management of a 32-year-old gravida 2 para 0 (G2P0010) patient with mosaic TS undergoing labor induction at 37 weeks of gestation. An indwelling epidural catheter placed under ultrasound guidance provided adequate labor analgesia with about one-tenth of the dosing compared to the general population and led to a successful vaginal delivery without complications. This case highlights the unique challenges presented by the TS patients to obstetric anesthesia, such as difficult epidural placement and unusual neuraxial dosing, and provides important insight into the safe anesthetic practice in this patient population.
