Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of COVID-19 During Pregnancy-a Retrospective Cohort Study.
Review in Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 course of COVID-19 has been shown to be worse in pregnant women compared with their non-pregnant counterparts. The aim of this study is to share our experience treating pregnant women with COVID-19 and to establish a cohort for future studies of the long-term effects of the disease. We reviewed medical records of all SARS-CoV-2-positive pregnant women who were treated at our hospital for any reason, be it COVID-19 related or not, between April 2020 and February 2021. We extracted data regarding medical history, course of pregnancy, delivery, and neonatal outcomes. A total of 193 SARS-CoV-2-positive pregnant women were treated at our establishment during the study period, half of which were asymptomatic. Sixteen were hospitalized for COVID-19 symptoms, the most common being fatigue/malaise (58%) and cough (48%). Three women required mechanical ventilation and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation treatment. One hundred forty-four SARS-CoV-2-positive women were delivered during the study period. Of them, 24 (17%) underwent induction of labor, and four (17%) were due to symptomatic COVID-19. One hundred fifteen (80%) experienced vaginal delivery, and 29 (20%) underwent cesarean delivery. Neonatal outcomes were favorable; only 2% of 5-min Apgar scores were < 7, and all umbilical cord pH levels were > 7.1. Six infants tested positive for SARS-CoV-2; they were all asymptomatic, and none required treatment for viral infection. COVID-19 during pregnancy is a disease with potential substantial adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. There is still much unknown regarding the long-term effects of the disease on parturients and their offspring.
