Perinatal Outcome of the Second Twin at a Tertiary Care Center in India.
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeThis cross-sectional observational study was undertaken to assess perinatal outcome of the second twin in respect to gestational age, presentation, mode of delivery, and birth weight.
methodsSeventy women with confirmed twin pregnancy were admitted and managed in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Kolkata, India from May 2008 to April 2009. All relevant data were recorded and analyzed statistically by simple proportions and
resultsWomen with frequent antenatal visits had highly favorable perinatal outcome than those with fewer or no visits in this hospital (
conclusionsGestational age, presentation, mode of delivery, and birth weight are the significant determinants of perinatal outcome of the second twin. Women with frequent antenatal care show favorable outcome. The second twin is at higher risk of perinatal morbidity and mortality than the first twin.
