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

This report describes the case of a 37-year-old woman (G5P1041) with Asherman syndrome who failed both medication and procedural abortions. Her medical history included recurrent pregnancy loss, postpartum hemorrhage, and multiple suction and sharp dilation and curettages. She was found to have intrauterine adhesions and while awaiting lysis of adhesions, she became pregnant and desired termination of pregnancy. The patient's clinical course was as follows: unsuccessful vacuum aspiration at 6 weeks 0 days due to inability to reach the gestational sac, failed medication abortion, unsuccessful hysteroscopic abortion with morcellation at 6 weeks 5 days, and successful hysteroscopic removal of retained products of conception one month later. Clinical guidance is lacking for patients with intrauterine adhesions that fail procedural and medication abortions. This single case suggests that management modalities to consider include comprehensive preoperative planning, ultrasound guidance, hysteroscopic removal of the products of conception, use of second-look hysteroscopy, and close postoperative follow-up.
