Histological Chorioamnionitis - Experience from a Tertiary Care Center.
Article in Maedica, 2024. 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesChorioamnionitis (CA) mostly represents the presence of intra-amniotic infection. The features of the disease can be detected during histopathological examination of the delivered fetal membranes. The current study aims to explore the features of all histological chorioamnionitis cases received in the Pathology Department of a university hospital over a period of five years.
methodsThis retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted between January 2015 and December 2019 and used data from 78 women with histologically confirmed chorioamnionitis. All data were gathered from the hospital information system. The SPSS software's statistical methods were used to show and analyze descriptive and categorical data.
resultsThe selected patients had an average age of 36.18 ± 6.153 years (age range 21-50 years) and different stages of the disease: 29 (37.2%) in the first stage, 25 (32%) in the second stage and the remaining 24 (30.7%) subjects in the third stage. Nearly half of cases showed concomitant umbilical cord inflammation, whereas placental inflammation occurred much less frequently. The most common cause of chorioamnionitis was bacterial infection, where Streptococcus agalactiae was the most prevalent.
conclusionsThis study showed that the majority of histological chorioamnionitis were of mild intensity (stage 1). Many cases were associated with umbilical cord and, to a lesser extent, with placental inflammation. Bacteria were the most typical cause of chorioamnionitis. The most common strain was Streptococcus agalactiae.
