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

Threatened abortion, defined as vaginal bleeding in the first trimester of pregnancy with a viable fetus, is a common obstetric complication. Therefore, it is of interest to investigate the maternal and fetal health outcomes associated with threatened abortion and to compare these outcomes with a control group of healthy pregnancies. Hence, a total of 240 pregnant women were included in this study, with 120 women diagnosed with threatened abortion and 120 healthy controls. Women with threatened abortion showed significantly higher rates of preterm delivery (25% vs. 12.5%, p<0.001), low birth weight (23.33% vs. 10%, p<0.001) and intrauterine growth restriction (12.5% vs. 6.67%) compared to the control group. Additionally, the incidence of antepartum hemorrhage (9.17% vs. 3.33%, p=0.001) and postpartum hemorrhage (10% vs. 4.17%) were significantly higher in the threatened abortion group. Neonatal outcomes also showed higher rates of low Apgar scores (10% vs. 3.33%, p<0.001) and NICU admissions (28.33% vs. 6.67%). Our study highlights the significant risks associated with threatened abortion, including increased rates of preterm birth, low birth weight, fetal growth restriction and maternal complications. These findings emphasize the need for early identification and careful management of pregnancies complicated by threatened abortion.
