Partographic analysis of spontaneous labour at term in primigravida.
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purpose of the studyTo study the use of partogram in the analysis of spontaneous labour at term in primigravida with cephalic presentation. METHODOLOGY: Partographic analysis of labour was done in 200 primigravidae. Partographic variables are plotted, and the study population was divided into three groups. Group I: Cervix dilatation and descent curve falling to the left of alert line; Group II: Cervix dilatation and descent curve falling to the right of alert line; and Group III: Cervix dilatation and descent curve falling to the right of action line. Maternal and neonatal outcomes were studied in each of three groups.
resultsAmongst the 200 primigravid labours analysed, 133 (66.5 %) belonged to group I, 40 (20.0 %) belonged to group II and 27 (13.5 %) belonged to group III. Mean durations of active phases of labour were 4.1 h, 6.9 h and 9.6 h, in groups I, II and III, respectively. In group I, 130 women (97.7 %) delivered vaginally, 3 (2.3 %) underwent LSCS. In group II, 29 (72.5 %) delivered vaginally, 4 (10 %) delivered instrumentally and 7 (17.5 %) underwent LSCS, and in group III, 5 (18.5 %) delivered vaginally, 7 (25.9 %) delivered instrumentally and 15 (55.5 %) delivered by LSCS.
conclusionMean duration of active phase of labour increased as the partographic curve fell to the right of alert and action line. Increased rates of instrumental deliveries, LSCS, babies with lower APGAR score at 5 min, and NICU admissions were observed in group III compared with groups I and II.
