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

introductionThere are very few African and Malagasy literatures on general risk factors among primigravidae. This study aimed to determine the potential risk factors associated with a first pregnancy.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study among primigravidae and multigravidae women at the Hospital Sainte Fleur Pavilion between October 2014 and December 2016. The relative risks were adjusted after examinations according to sociodemographic features.

resultsPrimigravidae were far more likely to experience prolonged labour lasting more than 12h (aRR = 2.28; 95% CI 1.74-3.00), emergency cesarean section (RR = 1.47; 95% CI 1.35-1.60) and episiotomy (aRR = 2.98; 95% CI 2.61-3.40). Children were more likely to show signs of fetal distress associated with fetal rhythm abnormalities during labor (aRR = 1.96; 95% CI 1.45-2.65) and an increased risk for intensive care unit admission after birth (aRR = 2.08; 95% CI 1.25-3.45).

conclusionComplications arising during labor may expose primigravidae to cascading risks concerning delivery outcomes and children's health. The management of labour in primigravidae should require close attention from medical staff.
