Use of oxytocin during early stages of labor and its effect on active management of third stage of labor.
Trial report in American journal of obstetrics and gynecology, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the use of oxytocin during the first and second stages of labor is associated with a higher incidence of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in pregnant women who received active management of third stage of labor (AMTSL). STUDY
designA secondary data analysis from vaginal deliveries in a hospital-based cohort study from 24 maternity hospitals in South America. The primary outcomes that were analyzed were moderate PPH (≥500 mL of blood loss), severe PPH (≥1000 mL of blood loss), and need of blood transfusion.
resultsA total of 11,323 vaginal deliveries were included. The incidence of moderate and severe PPH was 10.8% and 1.86%, respectively. Overall, 36% of deliveries received AMTSL. There was no association between induced/augmented labor and moderate PPH (P = .753), severe PPH (P = .273), and blood transfusion (P = .603) in the population that received AMTSL.
conclusionAMTSL should be recommended, regardless of whether pregnant women received oxytocin during the first and second stages of labor.
