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

Non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of tocolytic therapy. While commonly associated with beta-agonists and calcium channel blockers, its occurrence with atosiban remains poorly documented. To date, only a small number of cases have been reported in the literature. We report the case of a 21-year-old primigravida with a dichorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy who developed acute hypoxemic respiratory failure during atosiban therapy for threatened preterm labor. A comprehensive diagnostic workup excluded cardiogenic, thromboembolic, and infectious causes. Imaging findings were consistent with pulmonary edema. Rapid clinical improvement following discontinuation of atosiban strongly supported a drug-related etiology. This case highlights a rare but clinically relevant adverse effect of atosiban and emphasizes the importance of early recognition, particularly in high-risk patients.
