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

Hemorrhagic complications following cesarean section, including rectus sheath hematoma and bladder flap hematoma, are uncommon but potentially life threatening. We describe a rare case of concurrent inferior epigastric artery injury and superior vesical artery pseudoaneurysm after cesarean delivery in a 27-year-old woman with a prior cesarean section. Despite laparotomy, hemostasis was not achieved, and she required massive transfusion. Transarterial embolization successfully controlled inferior epigastric artery bleeding, but tortuosity and collateral circulation limited embolization of the superior vesical artery pseudoaneurysm. Subsequent transvaginal ultrasound-guided direct puncture with injection of a mixture of n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate and Lipiodol resulted in hemostasis. The patient recovered without rebleeding. This case underscores the importance of considering rare vascular complications after cesarean section and demonstrates transvaginal ultrasound-guided puncture as a valuable alternative when conventional methods fail.
