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

objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the role of antithrombin III (AT-III) and D-dimer (D-Dimer) in patients with unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion (URSA); Methods: Sixty pregnant women with URSA (AEP group), 80 non-pregnant women with a history of URSA (ANP group), 50 healthy women in early pregnancy (NEP group) and 50 healthy non-pregnant women (NNP group) were retrospectively enrolled. Their serum AT-III and D-Dimer levels were measured. The patients in the ANP group were divided into three subgroups according to the number of miscarriages: 3 miscarriages (32 cases), 4 miscarriages (22 cases), and >4 miscarriages (26 cases), and the differences in serum AT-III and D-Dimer levels among these subgroups were compared. The patients in the AEP group were monitored for changes in AT-III and D-Dimer levels, and finally the diagnostic value of AT-III and D-Dimer levels were calculated for the prethrombotic state of URSA.

results(1) AT-III and D-Dimer levels differed significantly among the 4 groups (P<0.05); (2) As the number of miscarriages increased, D-Dimer levels elevated and AT-III levels decreased, with significant differences among three subgroups (P<0.05); (3) As the treatment proceeded, patients in AEP and ANP groups showed a tendency for a gradual increase in AT-III levels and a significant decrease in D-Dimer levels, with significant differences before and after treatment (P<0.05); (4) The diagnostic AUC of AT-III and D-Dimer in the prediction of prethrombotic state of URSA were 0.8922 (95% CI=0.8026-0.9819, P<0.0001) and 0.8776 (95% CI=0.7643-0.9909, P<0.0001).

conclusionAT-III and D Dimer levels are closely associated with URSA. The results of this study have preliminarily confirmed the feasibility of applying AT-III and D Dimer to screen the prethrombotic state of URSA, and their clinical application will help provide a reference for determining the cause of miscarriage in the infertile population with URSA and facilitate successful pregnancy.
