Short-Term Outcomes of Atosiban in the Treatment of Preterm Labour at the Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, Oman: A tertiary care experience.

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
objectivesThis study aimed to generate baseline evidence regarding the effectiveness of atosiban in delaying delivery by ≥48 hours among pregnant women presenting with threatened preterm labour (TPL). The secondary objective was to assess the relationship between atosiban success and various perinatal factors and neonatal outcomes.
methodsThis retrospective study was conducted between June 2008 and May 2018 at the Sultan Qaboos University Hospital, Muscat, Oman. The medical records of all pregnant women who received atosiban between 24-34 gestational weeks for TPL during this period were reviewed.
resultsA total of 159 women were included in the study. Atosiban was successful in delaying delivery by ≥48 hours in 130 cases (81.8%). Approximately half of the women (50.9%) achieved uterine quiescence in <12 hours. Failure to delay delivery by ≥48 hours was significantly lower among women with normal versus abnormal cervical findings (11.1% versus 25.6%;
conclusionAtosiban was highly effective in delaying delivery by ≥48 hours and resulted in few adverse maternal side-effects and neonatal outcomes. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first study conducted in Oman to evaluate the effectiveness of atosiban in preventing preterm labour.
