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
objectivethe aim of our study was to assess the contribution of quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) and pathology studies in the diagnosis of diandric triploidies/partial hydatidiform moles.
methodsthis study included all fet al triploidies diagnosed by QF-PCR in chorionic villi or amniotic fluid in the 2 centers of BCNatal in which a maternal saliva sample was used to establish its parental origin. Pathology studies were performed in products of conception and concordance between a partial hydatidiform mole diagnosis and the finding of a diandric triploidy was assessed.
resultsamong 46 fetal triploidies, found in 13 ongoing pregnancies and in 33 miscarriages, there were 26 (56%) diandric triploidies. Concordant molecular (diandric triploidy) and pathology results (partial mole) were achieved in 14 cases (54%), while in 6 cases (23%) pathology studies were normal, and in the remaining 6 cases (23%) pathology studies could not be performed because miscarriage was managed medically.
conclusionsdiandric triploidy is associated with partial hydatidiform mole and its diagnosis is crucial to prevent the development of persistent trophoblastic disease. QF-PCR analysis in chorionic villi or amniotic fluid provides a more accurate diagnosis of the parental origin of triploidy than the classical pathology studies.
