Safety of uneventful cesarean section in terms of hemorrhage.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2015. 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
objectiveHemorrhage still continues to be reported as one of the leading causes of maternal mortality and morbidity. Intraoperative estimation of the blood loss seems to be complex and misleading as it is impaired by the amount of amniotic fluid and blood from the placenta. The present study was aimed to investigate the safety of intraoperative deciding on an uneventful cesarean section in a low risk patient population. MATERIAL AND
methodsOne hundred patients free from hemorrhage risks and experienced an uneventful elective cesarean section, were included to the study. The decline in hemoglobin and hematocrit values, calculated blood loss, transfusion rate and presence of hemorrhage related symptoms and signs were accepted as the main outcomes of the study.
resultsThe average preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin values were detected as 12.09±0.18 g/dl and 10.72±1.39 g/dl, respectively. The average decrease in hemoglobin was 1.36±1.06 g/dl. The observed decrease in hemoglobin values were less than 10% in 34.4% of the patients. The average blood loss was calculated to be 517.06±417.55 ml. There were no patients with signs and symptoms of hemorrhage. Cross match transfusion ratio, transfusion probability and transfusion index was calculated as zero.
conclusionThe decision of uneventful cesarean section provides obstetricians a safe postoperative and postpartum period after following standardized surgical procedures in terms of hemorrhage and related complications.
