1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 goal of this work is to analyze the incidence, etiology, clinical characteristics, maternal and neonatal outcomes of complete uterine rupture during pregnancy.

methodsThe information of complete uterine rupture between June 2010 and May 2020 was investigated retrospectively at a tertiary center, and included demographic data, delivery characteristics, intraoperative findings, and maternal and neonatal outcomes. The prevalence rate of uterine rupture in the early group (hospitalized from June 2010 to May 2015) and late group (June 2015 to May 2020) was compared and analyzed.

resultsThere were 37 (0.056%) cases of complete uterine rupture in 66 092 births, including 27 (0.041%) of scar uterus and 10 (0.015%) of non-scarred uterus. High-risk factors for scarred uterine rupture included: previous cesarean section (13, 48.1%), myomectomy (8, 29.6%), corneal pregnancy resection (6, 22.2%), history of uterine rupture (1, 3.7%), and uterus perforation during abortion (1, 3.7%). Compared to the early group, the number of uterine ruptures caused by previous cesarean section was significantly reduced in the late group. Of the 10 patients with non-scarred uterine rupture, 3 (30%) occurred during delivery and 7 (70%) were spontaneous. Among the 37 complete rupture patients, 3 (8.1%) died of uterine scar rupture, 19 (51.3%) cases were reported with fetal/newborn deaths, 5 (13.5%) cases underwent hysterectomy and the rest were treated with uterine repair.

conclusionComplete uterine rupture often has catastrophic effect on pregnancy outcomes. Obstetrics doctors should be vigilant to identify the risk factors and clinical presentations of uterine rupture during pregnancy. Strict prenatal management is beneficial to improve pregnancy outcomes.
