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

objectiveWe sought to evaluate and describe the maternal and obstetric morbidity associated with Listeria infection in pregnancy.

methodsRetrospective cohort of pregnant women using the 2007-2018 National Inpatient Sample. Pregnant women with discharge diagnosis codes consistent with Listeria infection were identified. Outcomes of deliveries complicated by Listeria infection were compared to those of delivery without this infection. The primary outcome was a composite of severe maternal morbidity. Secondary outcomes included components of the composite, maternal length of stay, mode of delivery, stillbirth, and preterm delivery.

resultsWe identified 134 maternity associated hospitalizations for Listeria (weighted national estimate 666), of which 72 (weighted national estimate of 358) were delivery admissions. Delivery admissions complicated by Listeria resulted in higher rates of severe maternal morbidity than those without, (30.9% vs. 1.6%,

conclusionsWomen with Listeria infection in pregnancy have higher rates of severe maternal morbidity, specifically increased risk of sepsis, septic shock, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Among delivery hospitalizations, these women also have higher rates of preterm birth and stillbirth.
