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

Oxidative stress and impaired placental function - pathways implicated in the pathogenesis of placental abruption - have their origins extending to mitochondrial dysfunction. To the best of our knowledge, there are no published reports of associations of placental abruption with circulating mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number - a novel biomarker of systemic mitochondrial dysfunction. This pilot case-control study was comprised of 233 placental abruption cases and 238 non-abruption controls. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to assess the relative copy number of mtDNA in maternal whole blood samples collected at delivery. Logistic regression procedures were used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). There was some evidence of an increased odds of placental abruption with the highest quartile of mtDNA copy number (P for trend = 0.09) after controlling for confounders. The odds of placental abruption was elevated among women with higher mtDNA copy number (≥336.9) as compared with those with lower values (<336.9) (adjusted OR = 1.60; 95% CI 1.04-2.46). Women diagnosed with preeclampsia and with elevated mtDNA copy number had a dramatically increased odds of placental abruption as compared with normotensive women without elevated mtDNA copy number (adjusted OR = 6.66; 95% CI 2.58-17.16). Maternal mitochondrial dysfunction appears to be associated with placental abruption in the presence of preeclampsia. Replication in other studies, particularly prospective cohort studies and those that allow for tissue specific assessment of mitochondrial dysfunction (e.g., the placenta) are needed to further understand cellular and genomic biomarkers of normal and abnormal placental function.
