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

The coincidence of a global pandemic with 21st-century telecommunication technology has led to rapid deployment of virtual obstetric care beginning in March of 2020. Pregnancy involves uniquely time-sensitive health care that may be amenable to restructuring into a hybrid of telemedicine and traditional visits to optimize accessibility and outcomes. The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has provided an unprecedented natural laboratory to explore how virtual obstetric care programs can be developed, implemented, and maintained, both as a contingency model for the pandemic and potentially for the future. Here, we discuss the role of telehealth and virtual care for pregnancy management in the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, as well as anticipated barriers, challenges, and strategies for success for obstetric telemedicine.
