Analysis of Causes and Results of Fetal Growth in Utero Caused by Genetic Factors Detected by Ultrasound.
Article in Contrast media & molecular imaging, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 papers.
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
In order to investigate the value of the ultrasonic monitoring of maternal and fetal vascular parameters, serum vitamin D, and placental growth factor (PLGF) in predicting fetal growth restriction (FGR), a method of ultrasonic detection of genetic factors causing fetal growth in utero was proposed. 125 pregnant women with FGR diagnosed in our hospital from June 2018 to June 2021 (the FGR group) and 125 pregnant women with a normal prenatal examination (the control group) were collected retrospectively. The systolic/diastolic blood flow ratio (S/D), pulsatile index (PI), and resistance index (RI) of the fetal umbilical artery (UA), middle cerebral artery (MCA), and maternal uterine artery (UtA) were monitored by ultrasound at 20 to 24 weeks of gestation, and the levels of serum vitamin D and PLGF were detected. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was used to evaluate the predictive value of FGR. The results showed that the S/D, PI, and RI of UA in the FGR group were higher than those in the control group, the areas under the curve (AUC) were 0.866, 0.817, and 0.849, and the sensitivity and specificity were (72.8%, 91.2%), (50.4%, 100%), and (72.8%, 91.2%), respectively. The S/D, PI, and RI of MCA were lower than those of the control group. The AUC was 0.882, 0.869, and 0.834, respectively; the sensitivity and specificity were (92.0%, 74.4%), (88.8%, 81.6%), and (90.4%, 72%), respectively. The S/D, PI, and RI of UtA were higher than those of the control group; the AUC was 0.768, 0.729, and 0.732; the sensitivity and specificity were (91.2%, 52%), (48%, 90.4%), and (48.8%, 90.4%), respectively. The serum levels of vitamin D and PLGF were lower than those of the control group (AUC 0.784 and 0.807), and the sensitivity and specificity were (54.4%, 91.2%) and (99.2%, 52%), respectively. It was concluded that the ultrasound monitoring of UA, MCA, and UtA in pregnant women in the middle of pregnancy and detection of serum vitamin D and PLGF levels had a certain predictive value for FGR. Moreover, the comprehensive evaluation could reduce the occurrence of FGR in high-risk pregnant women.
