Effect of Premature Rupture of Membranes on Induction of Labor: A Historical Cohort Study.
Article in Geburtshilfe und Frauenheilkunde, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the influence of premature rupture of membranes (PROM) on the induction of labor. MATERIAL AND
methodThis historical cohort study analyzed 1861 inductions of labor at term using misoprostol which occurred between 2010 and 2015. Exclusion criteria included intrauterine fetal death, previous cesarean section, and fetal structural or chromosomal anomalies. Induction of labor for PROM (PROM group) was compared to induction for other indications (no-PROM group); the primary outcome measure was the cesarean section rate.
resultsThe cesarean section rate for the PROM group was significantly lower (21.9% vs. 26.3%, p = 0.029). The induction-to-delivery interval was shorter (mean: 972 [854 - 6734] min vs. 1741 [97 - 10 834] min, p < 0.0001) and the rates of vaginal birth within 24 hours (80.9 vs. 52.0%, p = 0.0001) and 48 hours (98.4 vs. 85.3%, p = 0.0001) were higher in the PROM group. The impact of PROM on the cesarean section rate was not significant in multivariate analysis; however, PROM was found to have the greatest effect on the induction-to-delivery interval (p < 0.0001).
conclusionPremature rupture of membranes significantly affects various outcome measures when delivery is induced, particularly the induction-to-delivery interval.
