Risk factors associated with preterm birth: a retrospective study in Mukalla Maternity and Childhood Hospital, Hadhramout Coast/Yemen.
Article in Sudanese journal of paediatrics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Preterm birth (PTB) is a major determinant of neonatal mortality, morbidity and childhood disability. It has long-term adverse consequences for health. The causes of preterm delivery (PTD) are multifactorial. This study was conducted to determine the most common risk factors for PTB at Mukalla Maternity and Childhood (MCH) Hospital, Yemen. A retrospective case-control study was conducted. It involved the records of 100 women with live PTD as cases and 400 women with live term delivery as controls at Mukalla MCH Hospital in 2018. All the data were analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (version 24). The statistical relationship between independent variables and PTB was studied by the Chi-square test in bivariate analysis and logistic regression in multivariate analysis. The strength of association was confirmed by using odds ratios (ORs) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Risk factors with statistically significant association with premature birth were a family history of PTD (adjusted OR [AOR] 2.353; CI 1.3-4.258,
