Relationship between maternal serum sFlt-1 level and placenta accreta spectrum disorders in the third trimester.

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
purposeThis study aims to evaluate whether the third-trimester soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) serum levels could be related to placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorders and the severity of postpartum blood loss.
methodsThis was a nested case-control study which compared serum sFlt-1 level between gravid women with or without PAS disorders. Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between sFlt-1 level and the volume of postpartum blood loss. Confounding factors were adjusted to avoid the impact on the results.
resultsSixty gravid women were enrolled: 36 women in the PAS group and 24 women in the non-PAS group. Women in the PAS group had a median sFlt-1 level of 9407.1 [2745.9-21,691.5] pg/ml, whereas women in the non-PAS group had a median sFlt-1 level of 25,779.2 [14317.1-35,626.7] pg/ml, (p < 0.001). The sFlt-1 level was negatively related to the volume of postpartum blood loss (r = - 0.358, p = 0.041). After adjusting for maternal age and gestational age at blood taking, sFlt-1 level showed no significant relationship with PAS disorders (p = 0.245) and postpartum blood loss (p = 0.526).
conclusionThird-trimester sFlt-1 serum level is not independently associated with PAS disorders or postpartum blood loss after adjusting for confounding factors.
