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

Sepsis is a leading cause of maternal morbidity with a high case fatality rate and leads to significant perinatal loss. Early identification and appropriate time management can significantly improve maternal and perinatal outcomes. The physiological changes of pregnancy and puerperium make pregnant women more susceptible to sepsis and also pose a challenge for early diagnosis because of overlap of clinical features and laboratory values. The validation of scoring/warning systems for sepsis in parturient needs further research. Infections during puerperium are commonly polymicrobial in nature and warrant broad-spectrum antibiotics. Maternal resuscitation in antepartum period has to be tailored to ensure fetal well-being and adequate placental perfusion. For the management of sepsis in pregnancy, the guidelines from surviving sepsis campaign (SSC) for general adult population are extrapolated with modifications related to physiological alterations in pregnancy and puerperium. Timing of delivery is based on the obstetric indications unless the source of sepsis is intrauterine. How to cite this article: Jain V, Arora A, Jain K. Sepsis in the Parturient.
