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

backgroundAlthough first-trimester subchorionic hematoma (SCH) always concerns expectant parents, its clinical significance remains controversial. This study aimed to examine the relationship between SCH and its association with subsequent miscarriage and other perinatal outcomes in singleton pregnancies.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study including 43,660 women who underwent routine prenatal care since the first trimester and then were followed up for maternal and neonatal outcomes. SCH was detected in the first-trimester ultrasound examinations. Robust Poisson regression was used to estimate adjusted risk associations of SCH with maternal and neonatal outcomes.

resultsA total of 815 (1.87%) SCH cases were detected in the first-trimester ultrasound examinations. The rate of miscarriage was statistically significantly higher in women with SCH than without [35.21% vs. 23.92%, P < 0.01; adjusted relative risk (RR):1.44, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.31-1.58]. Subgroup analysis of women with SCH showed a clear trend that the earlier SCH occurred, the higher the risk of miscarriage was [adjusted RR (95% CI) for onset at the gestational weeks of 8-9, 6-7, and < 6 vs. ≥ 10: 1.30 (0.69-2.46), 2.33 (1.28-4.23), and 4.18 (2.30-7.58), respectively; P

conclusionsFirst-trimester SCH, particularly when characterized by early presence and large size, might significantly increase the risk of miscarriage. Data from this study suggest no associations between SCH and other maternal and neonatal outcomes.
