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

To date there are no data in the literature on the procedure for the indirect measurement of blood loss during cesarean section, based on the post-operative drop in haemoglobin (Hb), which has been due to the lack of biometrically determined parameters for the calculation of blood volume in pregnant women. This study was therefore conducted to determine the applicability of the drop in Hb levels blood loss calculation during cesarean section, based on a model previously validated in non-pregnant women. We compared this procedure in 54 patients who underwent cesarean section and 12 non-pregnant patients subjected to gynaecological surgery. The coefficient of the regression slope for the blood volume collected during surgery and the calculated blood loss in pregnant (y=0.6286x+366) and non-pregnant patients (y=0.7605x+514) did not show any significant difference (t=1.1009, p>0.5, 95% confidence interval:-2.736, +2.473). Our study therefore demonstrated the applicability of the procedure for the indirect measurement of surgical blood loss both in pregnant and non-pregnant women.
