The wandering intrauterine contraceptive device: An unusual case of omental IUCD migration with multimodality imaging findings.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2026. 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
Uterine perforation with subsequent migration of an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) is a rare but serious complication. We report the case of a 29-year-old postpartum woman who presented with missing IUCD threads and intermittent right lower abdominal pain 1 month after insertion of a copper T380A IUCD. Ultrasound revealed an empty uterine cavity and a T-shaped echogenic structure in the right abdomen. Abdominal radiography and computed tomography (CT) confirmed extrauterine migration, with the device embedded in the omental fat at the L3-L4 level and no evidence of visceral injury. The patient underwent successful laparoscopic removal, and her recovery was uneventful. This case highlights the importance of multimodality imaging in timely diagnosis and management of IUCD migration.
