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

Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) and placenta previa (PP) are severe obstetric disorders associated with high maternal and perinatal morbidity. Early diagnosis of both conditions remains challenging, particularly in cases with subtle imaging findings. This study was aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of first-trimester maternal serum levels of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and free beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) in predicting PAS and PP. In this retrospective case-control study, a total of 100 pregnant women were included: 36 with PAS, 32 with PP, and 32 healthy controls. Serum levels were measured at 11-13
