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

(1) Background: Macrosomia is prevalent in China and worldwide. The current method of predicting macrosomia is ultrasonography. We aimed to develop new predictive models for recognizing macrosomia using a random forest model to improve the sensitivity and specificity of macrosomia prediction; (2) Methods: Based on the Shandong Multi-Center Healthcare Big Data Platform, we collected the prenatal examination and delivery data from June 2017 to May 2018 in Jinan, including the macrosomia and normal-weight newborns. We constructed a random forest model and a logistic regression model for predicting macrosomia. We compared the validity and predictive value of these two methods and the traditional method; (3) Results: 405 macrosomia cases and 3855 normal-weight newborns fit the selection criteria and 405 pairs of macrosomia and control cases were brought into the random forest model and logistic regression model. On the basis of the average decrease of the Gini coefficient, the order of influencing factors was: interspinal diameter, transverse outlet, intercristal diameter, sacral external diameter, pre-pregnancy body mass index, age, the number of pregnancies, and the parity. The sensitivity, specificity, and area under curve were 91.7%, 91.7%, and 95.3% for the random forest model, and 56.2%, 82.6%, and 72.0% for logistic regression model, respectively; the sensitivity and specificity were 29.6% and 97.5% for the ultrasound; (4) Conclusions: A random forest model based on the maternal information can be used to predict macrosomia accurately during pregnancy, which provides a scientific basis for developing rapid screening and diagnosis tools for macrosomia.
