The comparison of predictive value of cervical length in singleton spontaneous preterm labor with in vitro fertilization pregnancies: A cohort study.
Article in International journal of reproductive biomedicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPreterm labor (PTL) is one of the most important factors in neonatal mortality. Some studies have revealed a reverse relationship between cervical length (CL) and PTL, however, further evidence is needed to confirm it.
objectiveTo investigate the predictive value of CL in spontaneous and in vitro fertilization (IVF) pregnancies. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis prospective cohort study was performed on 154 pregnant women from 16-26 wk of gestation with singleton fetus in spontaneous delivery (n = 77) and IVF pregnancies (n = 77) and followed up until delivery. Women with multiple pregnancy, placenta previa, cerclage, and congenital anomalies were excluded from study. The cut-off determination was done according to the Roc analysis.
resultsThe mean CL in term delivery and PTL groups were 37
conclusionIn this study, IVF had a significant direct correlation with PTL. CL also had a significant indirect relationship with PTL.
