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

introductionRheumatic disease (RD) patients when family planning must consider fertility, disease activity, and management from preconception to lactation. A clear understanding is necessary, especially for those receiving disease-modifying antirheumatic medications. Previous studies have highlighted unmet needs in the care of women with RDs with reproductive healthcare needs. This study describes the first published standardized reproductive care pathway for women with RDs and the outcomes of this approach. MATERIAL AND

methodsWe developed the care pathway with multidisciplinary input from rheumatologists, rheumatology nurse specialists, obstetricians, midwives, maternal medicine specialists, and pharmacists. We identified patients' emotional and healthcare needs, ensured access to expert advice, maintenance of good disease control, and positive reproductive outcomes. We prospectively followed the patients and report the results of the service.

resultsNinety-eight women with median age (range) of 35 years (19-48) were assessed. The majority had an inflammatory arthritis. Seventy-six babies were born to 62 mothers. There were 12 miscarriages and one perinatal death. Breastfeeding rates at 6 weeks were low (28%).

conclusionWe describe the first published evidence-based integrated multidisciplinary reproductive care pathway for women with RDs and the results of this approach. Seventy percent of women successful in trying to conceive delivered a healthy baby, and 90% of patients were 'very satisfied' with the service.
