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

The twin pregnancy is a risk pregnancy, being associated with a series of fetal and neonatal complications when compared to singleton pregnancies. Ultrasound assessment of the fetal brain is mandatory in the prenatal screening for fetal, congenital and acquired anomalies. Fetal neurosonography is useful in the prenatal diagnosis of cerebral anomalies, combining ultrasonography with fetal ultrasound. In this study, we assessed the Kanet score in two populations of pregnant women with dichorionic twin pregnancies (DC twin) (n=67) and monochorionic twin pregnancies (MC twin) (n=24). In the two groups we included pregnancies with normal fetal growth and pregnancies with discordant fetal growth (DC twin) and selective intrauterine reatriction (MC twin). For both groups, we assessed the antenatal Kanet score during three visits and compared the results with the neurodevelopment immediately after birth up to the two-year-old children. The calculation of the average values of the Kanet score for dichorionic pregnancies revealed normal, maximal average values at all three visits, for all fetuses, no matter if they had normal growth or discordant growth. At the first and third visit, we observed statistically significant differences between the average Kanet scores in DC twins with discordant growth
