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

Benign hydatidiform mole, complete or partial, is the most common type of gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) characterised by excessive trophoblastic proliferation and abnormal embryonic development. Although most complete hydatidiform moles (CHMs) are diploid androgenetic, a few cases of CHMs are biparental, characterised by recurrence and familial clustering. In these rare cases, mutations in NLRP7 or KHDC3L genes, associated with maternal imprinting defects, have been implicated. Current data regarding future pregnancy options in hydatidiform moles are discussed and our opinion is presented based on an incidence that took place in our hospital with a woman with consecutive molar pregnancies. In recurrent hydatidiform moles, DNA testing should be performed and when NLRP7 or KHDC3L mutation are detected, oocyte donation should be proposed as an option to maximise woman's chances of having a normal pregnancy.
