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: Ovarian Vein Thrombosis (OVT) is a rare form of pelvic venous thrombosis that occurs mostly during postpartum period. Diagnosis often requires a high index of clinical suspicion and appropriate imaging. Lack of clinical awareness may result in OVT being missed or diagnosed late. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 30-year-old gravida 2 para 1 woman from Somalia who delivered a healthy male infant via spontaneous vaginal delivery at 37 + 4 weeks. The delivery was uncomplicated, and she was discharged in stable condition. The postpartum course was initially uneventful. On postpartum day 7, she developed right lower abdominal pain and episiotomy site discomfort. She remained afebrile with stable vital signs. Transabdominal doppler ultrasound revealed thrombosis of the right ovarian vein. She was managed with a combination of anticoagulants and antibiotics. Conclusion: OVT is a rare but clinically significant condition. It can be diagnosed with an ultrasound (US) Doppler or computed tomography (CT). Anticoagulation remains the mainstay of treatment. In this case, prompt recognition and initiation of therapeutic enoxaparin resulted in full symptom resolution and an uneventful recovery.
