Prophylactic intraoperative uterine or internal iliac artery embolization in planned cesarean for pernicious placenta previa in the third trimester of pregnancy: An observational Study (STROBE compliant).

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
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of prophylactic intraoperative bilateral uterine or internal iliac artery embolization in planned cesarean for pernicious placenta previa in the third trimester of pregnancy.The patients with pernicious placenta previa were retrospectively included from January 2011 to May 2018, being divided into embolization group and control group. Intraoperative uterine artery embolization (UAE) or internal iliac artery embolization (IIAE) was undertaken to stop intrapartum and postpartum hemorrhage in embolization group.There were no significant differences on age, pregnancy times, gestational age, neonatal weight, neonatal asphyxia, prenatal bleeding, placental implantation, and mortality between embolization group and control group (P > .05). The amount of intraoperative and postoperative bleeding in embolization group was significantly greater than that in control group (P < .05). However, the hysterectomy rate in the embolization group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P < .05). Two (6.25%, 2/32) cases had undergone the second time embolotherapy after 8 hours of cesarean surgery because of severe vaginal bleeding. One case (3.13%, 1/32) died of diffuse intravascular coagulation because of hemorrhagic shock in embolization group. Transient and self-remitted lumbosacral pain was present in 28 (95%, 28/32) patients and no other severe interventional complications were reported in embolization group. All babies in 2 groups were healthy at half to 5 years' follow-up.The prophylactic intraoperative embolization of bilateral UAE or IIAE may be an effective strategy to treat intractable peripartum hemorrhage and preserve the fertility in patients with pernicious placenta previa.
