Delayed surgical and non-surgical treatment of placental remnants: no difference was found in the clinical efficacy and long-term pregnancy outcomes.

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
purposeIn a tertiary hospital, patients facing delayed treatment with placental remnants were common. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical efficacy and long-term pregnancy outcomes of the delayed surgical/non-surgical treatment for placental remnants. PATIENTS AND
methodsThe records of referral patients with placental remnants after second/third-trimester delivery/termination of pregnancy were retrospectively analyzed. A long-term follow-up was made by phone to inquire about the future pregnancy outcomes. The measurements of clinical efficacy included the postpartum intervals for Doppler ultrasound to become normal and for menstrual cycle to return to normal. Conception rate, interval for future pregnancy and obstetric outcomes were used to assess future pregnancies.
resultsA total of 65 patients, who were clinically diagnosed with placental remnants after termination of pregnancy at the second or third trimester from 2000 to 2016, were included in this study. Delayed surgical treatments employed at a median interval (MI) of 2.7 months after termination of pregnancy had a similar interval for ultrasound (
conclusionAccording to our experience, delayed surgeries at a postpartum interval of 2.7 months might have similar clinical efficacy and long-term pregnancy outcomes with expectant treatment in treating placental remnants.
