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

introductionTraumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the major causes for poor outcomes of pregnancy. Injury during pregnancy is uncommon; therefore, outcome data are scarce. This case series presents outcomes of pregnancy in five women who sustained SCI during their pregnancies. CASE PRESENTATION: Five women who sustained SCIs during pregnancy (age range: 24-38 years) were identified and included in this case series. The causes of SCI in this population were fall from heights (cases 1 and 2), road traffic accidents (cases 3 and 4) and firearm injury (case 5). Two of the females were managed conservatively (cases 1 and 5) and the rest underwent surgical procedures for fixing their spine. Out of these patients, four patients delivered normal healthy babies, while the baby of one patient died within 1 hour after delivery. DISCUSSION: Limited data about the outcomes of pregnancy in women who sustained SCIs during pregnancy are available in the literature. The outcomes of pregnancy in women who sustained SCIs during the first trimester are not satisfactory, and special attention may be needed to improve the expected outcomes. Data from our study show similar findings to developed countries.
