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

introductionBreech delivery has always been matter of interest in obstetrics. Cesarean breech delivery has been preferred method of delivery. We aim to find out any differences in outcome between vaginal breech delivery and cesarean breech delivery in our setup.

methodsData were collected from record book of Department of Gynaecology and obstetrics, Pokhara Academy of Health Sciences, Kaski, Nepal. Pregnant with breech presentation who had delivery in the centre from 2074 Baishak to 2074 chaitra were enrolled in the study. Data of 174 patients were analysed among which 74 underwent vaginal delivery for breech and 110 underwent cesarean breech delivery.

resultsOnly 1 (1.6%) of newborn delivered by vaginal route were admitted to NCU vs 17 (15.5% )in cesarean group which was significant (odds ratio= 0.071, 95% C.I 0.009-0.574; p= 0.004). There was only one death of newborn which was delivered by vaginal route. Mean APGAR score at 1 and 5 minute in vaginal breech delivery was 6 and 7 and in cesarean breech delivery was 6 and 8.

conclusionsThough perinatal morbidity was more with cesarean breech delivery but further study with more sample size is needed before reaching conclusion.
