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

Rupture of an ovarian artery aneurysm is a rare but potentially life-threatening cause of retroperitoneal haemorrhage during pregnancy. Most reported cases have occurred postpartum in multiparous women. This report describes an unusual case in a 26-year-old primigravid woman with symptom onset in the second trimester. She presented with recurrent left-sided abdominal pain from 21 + 6 weeks of gestation. Following repeated normal initial assessments, CT angiography at 31 + 6 weeks revealed a ruptured left ovarian artery aneurysm with retroperitoneal haemorrhage. She underwent a successful transarterial embolization, later developed pre-eclampsia, and delivered a healthy infant by planned caesarean section at 37 + 3 weeks of gestation. The case demonstrates that pregnancy-associated ovarian artery aneurysm may rupture in nulliparous women and present as early as the second trimester with recurrent, non-specific abdominal pain. Early vascular imaging and timely intervention may improve maternal and fetal outcomes.
