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

introductionCesarean delivery is the most common and costly gynaecologic surgery, with an increase in rate all over the world.

aimThe present study aimed to estimate the effect of uterine cavity cleansing with normal saline solution during cesarean delivery on the rate of infection, fever, bleeding and postoperative gastrointestinal complications. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study was a clinical trial carried out on 90 pregnant women who underwent elective cesarean delivery. The subjects were randomly assigned into two groups of 45 individuals, including rinsing in 500ml of normal saline solution during cesarean delivery (intervention group) and non-rinsed (control group). Postoperative complications include bleeding, fever, wound infection were examined. The data related to postoperative gastrointestinal complications and endometritis at the second day and one and six weeks after surgery were collected and data were analysed through SPSS 17.

resultsThere was no significant difference between two groups regarding febrile morbidity two days after the surgery. The rate of one-week postoperative febrile morbidity was higher in the control group but not statistically significant. The difference in the incidence of fever, wound infection and endometritis on the second day and on the first week was not statistically significant but the incidence of endometritis on the sixth week after surgery was significant in the intervention group than control group and was less in the intervention group, the wound infection at sixth week after surgery was fewer in the intervention group but not statistically significant. There was no significant difference between two groups in terms of gastrointestinal complications.

conclusionUterine cavity cleansing with normal saline solution during cesarean delivery may decrease postoperative complication, although the reduction is not statistically significant.
