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

objectiveThis study was performed to investigate the role of first-hour 50-g oral glucose challenge test (GCT) parameters in predicting the risk of delivering a small-for-gestational-age infant and to determine the accuracy of estimated fetal weight.

methodsWe screened 2,643 pregnant women >20 years of age and excluded 552 patients according to exclusion criteria. Newborns were assigned to three groups as SGA(n:100), AGA(n:100), and LGA(n:100) according to birth weight. All mothers received 50-g GCT in their 24-28th weeks of gestation. We examined the relationship between birthweight and test results.

resultsFirst-hour serum glucose level after the test significantly predicted babies with small for gestational age. Optimal cutoff value was obtained at a level of 74.5 mg/dl with 67% sensitivity and 55% specificity. The estimated fetal weight of Hadlock 5 formula was strongly correlated with the birth weight (Pearson r = 0.89).

conclusionOur study revealed that 50-g oral glucose challenge test may predict small-for-gestational-age cases with 67% sensitivity, and our data revealed that there is a significant correlation between estimated fetal weight of Hadlock 5 formula and the birth weight.
