Outcomes and complications of pharmacological induction of labor in women with previous one cesarean section, in a referral center in Saudi Arabia.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo review the outcomes, success rate, and safety of women undergoing labor induction following a cesarean section.
methodsThis study is a retrospective review of all patients who had previous cesarean sections and were induced with prostaglandin (PGE2) or for various indications. This study was carried out at King Saud Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia between 2014 and 2019. Inclusion criteria were pregnant women with previous one lower segment cesarean section, singleton cephalic fetus, normal placenta, and passed 18 months or more from previous cesarean section.
resultsRecords of 145 women were reviewed in the study, and the success rate of induction of labor was 59.3% (95% CI: 50.8-67.4%). The rate of uterine rupture was 1.4% and maternal complication was 4.8%. The induction success rate is higher in women who had previous successful vaginal delivery than those who had no previous vaginal delivery.
conclusionsLabor induction can be considered safe in carefully selected cases owing to its good chance of success and no significant increase in maternal or fetal mortality and morbidity.
