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

Placenta previa is the main cause of bleeding throughout pregnancy, and it is associated with serious complications, such as infection, that lead to a poor prognosis. Gynecological sonography is recommended as the first-line examination technique for the surveillance and determination of vaginal bleeding and for early intervention. We report the case of a patient with gradually expanded hypoechoic lesion and extremely high serum α-fetoprotein level during her third trimester, and discuss their potential relationship in evaluating the progression of placental necrosis.
