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

Although the World Health Organization suggests 10-15% as the adequate cesarean delivery rate to assure optimal prognosis for mother and children, cesarean rates have continuously increased worldwide over the last three decades, even in primiparous women. Moreover, uterine scars after myomectomies, complications of obstetrical interventions and more recently, after fetal surgery, are often observed. This review article describes the most commonly seen complications related to prior uterine scars and discusses their imaging findings, with emphasis on the increasing role of Magnetic Resonance Imaging for diagnosis.
