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

backgroundTo assess the association between depression in women and the risk of spontaneous abortion (SA) after pregnancy.

methodsRelevant studies were identified through searches of the PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases. The pooled effect sizes were presented as relative risk (RR) along with their respective 95% confidence intervals (95% CI), and data analysis was conducted using the random-effects model.

resultsA total of 31 studies involving 8,919,953 women were included in this meta-analysis. The results indicated a significant association between depression and increased risk of SA (RR = 1.34, 95% CI [1.27, 1.41], p < 0.001; I

conclusionsCompared to women without depression, women with depression is associated with an increased risk of SA after pregnancy, an association that is unrelated to the use of antidepressant medication.
