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

Twin pregnancies have a higher prevalence of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) than single pregnancies. It is unknown whether in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) influences the fetal outcomes in twin pregnancies complicated by ICP. This study aimed to explore the impact of IVF-ET on the perinatal outcomes of ICP in twin pregnancy. Clinical data from 142 twin pregnant women complicated with ICP were retrospectively analyzed, including 51 patients who conceived through IVF-ET (IVF group) and 91 patients with spontaneous conception (SC group). Several biochemical indicators and perinatal outcomes were analyzed. Compared to the SC group, the IVF group had a higher incidence of early-onset ICP (P = 0.015) and more frequent clinical symptoms (P = 0.020), including skin pruritus, skin scratch, and jaundice. Furthermore, the IVF group had higher rates of neonatal asphyxia (IVF vs. SC, 9.80% vs. 1.10%, P = 0.023) and premature delivery (IVF vs. SC, 96.08% vs. 83.52%, P = 0.027) compared to the SC group. The IVF-conceived twin pregnancy group had a higher risk of early-onset ICP and suffered from clinical symptoms and poor perinatal outcomes.
