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

Planned vaginal delivery in twin pregnancies has three potential outcomes: vaginal or cesarean delivery of both twins, or cesarean for the second twin. Our objective was to assess the association between delivery mode and severe acute maternal morbidity (SAMM) in women with twin pregnancies and planned vaginal deliveries. We limited this planned secondary analysis of the JUMODA cohort, a national prospective population-based study of twin deliveries, to women with planned vaginal delivery at or after 24 weeks of gestation who gave birth to two live fetuses at hospital. The association between delivery mode and SAMM was estimated from multivariate Poisson regression models. Of 5,055 women with planned vaginal delivery, 4,007 (79.3%) delivered both twins vaginally, 134 (2.6%) had cesarean for the second twin and 914 (18.1%) cesarean for both twins. Compared to vaginal delivery of both twins, the risk of SAMM was significantly higher after cesarean for the second twin (9.0% versus 4.5%; aRR 2.22, 95% CI 1.27-3.88) and for both twins (9.4% versus 4.5%, aRR 1.56, 95% CI 1.16-2.10). In twin pregnancies with planned vaginal delivery, cesarean deliveries for the second twin and for both twins are associated with higher risks of SAMM than vaginal delivery.
