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

Shoulder Dystocia (SD) is the nightmare of obstetricians. Despite its low incidence, SD still represents a huge risk of morbidity for both the mother and fetus. Even though several studies showed the existence of both major and minor risk factors that may complicate a delivery, SD remains an unpreventable and unpredictable obstetric emergency. When it occurs, SD is difficult to manage due to the fact that there are not univocal algorithms for its management.Nevertheless, even if it is appropriately managed, SD is one of the most litigated cause in obstetrics, because it is frequently associated with permanent birth-related injuries and mother complications.All the physicians should be prepared to manage this obstetric emergency by attending periodic training, even if SD is difficult to teach for its rare occurrence and because in clinical practice it is often handled by experienced obstetricians.THE PURPOSE OF THIS STUDY IS TO REVIEW THE LITERATURE CONCERNING THE EVERLASTING PROBLEMS OF SD: identification of risk factors for the early detection of delivery at high risk of SD and a systematic management of this terrifying obstetric emergency in order to avoid the subsequent health, medico-legal and economic complications.
