Dynamic Evaluation of the Rectus Abdominis Muscle before and after Delivery by Ultrasonography.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. It is linked to trial NCT07004738 (Ultrasound Assessment of Rectus Abdominis Muscle Thickness and Residual Bladder Volume Before and After Pelvic Floor Exercises), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the changes of rectus abdominis thickness and inter-rectus distance before and after delivery with high-frequency ultrasound. Methods: A total of 148 pregnant women at 12 weeks of gestation who underwent prenatal examination in our hospital from January 2019 to March 2020 were selected, and 140 of them cooperated with rectus abdominis examination. According to the results of rectus abdominis examination 42 days after delivery, 97 patients were divided into the DRA group with rectus abdominis isolated and 43 patients were divided into the normal group with rectus abdominis not isolated. At 12 weeks, 24 weeks, and 37 weeks of pregnancy, 3 days and 42 days after delivery, the thickness and spacing of the left and right rectus abdominis muscle were measured by high-frequency ultrasound along the white linea at three positions: 5 cm above the navel, 3 cm below the umbilical edge, and 3 cm below the navel. Results: The thickness of rectus abdominis at 5 cm above the navel, 3 cm below the navel, and at the navel margin of the abdominal white line in the pregnant women of the two groups was gradually decreased with the increase of the pregnancy cycle and gradually recovered after delivery. At 42 days after delivery, the thickness of rectus abdominis in the DRA group was significantly lower than that in the normal group, which was 5 cm above the umbilicus, 3 cm below the umbilicus, and the umbilical margin of the abdominal white line ( Conclusion: Ultrasound can accurately measure the inter-rectus distance and rectus thickness, accurately evaluate the degree of DRA, and realize the one-stop evaluation from prenatal diagnosis and prediction to postpartum rehabilitation monitoring, so as to intervene during pregnancy and reduce the risk of postpartum DRA.
