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 33-year-old patient had a history of a uterine leiomyoma that was first diagnosed incidentally on a dating scan in a previous pregnancy. This was further confirmed on different ultrasound scans after birth, and her main symptom was abnormal uterine bleeding. When she was due for further imaging and hysteroscopy, she was already eight weeks pregnant. Throughout pregnancy, the leiomyoma was growing on serial ultrasound scans, but she was not symptomatic. During her elective caesarean section (CS), a pedunculated leiomyoma was protruding from the posterior wall of the lower uterine segment and was excised and sent for histopathology. This was reported as a uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS), and she was referred to gynaecological oncology for management. Following this, she had staging investigations, which showed no metastasis. She proceeded to have a hysterectomy, and the histology confirmed complete treatment.
