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

This study evaluates the effectiveness of an informatized system based on the World Health Organization "Safe Childbirth Checklist" combined with standardized oxytocin administration in preventing postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) after cesarean section. A retrospective study included 100 women undergoing cesarean section between January 2023 and August 2025. Patients were divided into a control group (routine care) and an intervention group (informatized checklist plus optimized oxytocin strategy), with 50 cases each. Outcomes included blood loss at 2 hours and 24 hours, PPH incidence, hemoglobin reduction, additional uterotonic use, hospital stay, pelvic floor function, process quality indicators, and quality of life. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with PPH. Compared with the control group, the intervention group had significantly lower blood loss at 2 hours (312.48 ± 70.21 vs 420.56 ± 85.34 mL) and 24 hours (415.76 ± 95.63 vs 540.12 ± 110.45 mL), and a reduced PPH incidence (12.0% vs 30.0%, all P < .05). Hemoglobin reduction, additional uterotonic use, and hospital stay were also significantly decreased (all P < .05). Pelvic floor function improved, with higher vaginal dynamic pressure and muscle tone scores (P < .05). Process indicators, including checklist completion, timely oxytocin administration, and blood loss measurement accuracy, were significantly improved, along with shorter emergency response time and higher staff satisfaction (all P < .05). Quality-of-life scores were also higher in all dimensions (P < .05). The intervention was identified as an independent protective factor for PPH (odd ratio = 0.157, P < .05). The informatized World Health Organization checklist combined with standardized oxytocin use was associated with reduced post-cesarean hemorrhage, improved process quality, and better maternal outcomes. Given the retrospective single-center design and limited sample size, these findings should be interpreted as associative and require confirmation in prospective multicenter studies.
