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

backgroundGestational diabetes and obstetrical cholestasis are common clinical conditions seen in clinical practice. There is evidence suggesting a coexisting relationship that could have a potential clinical implication related to stillbirth outcomes.

objectiveThis study aimed to determine the prevalence of gestational diabetes in women with obstetrical cholestasis. STUDY

designA predefined protocol with a literature search was used to obtain all possible articles. A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies with quantifiable data published since 2010 were performed. Articles were evaluated and included in the study with specified criteria for the risk of bias using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. A meta-analysis was performed using Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology specifications to determine the prevalence of gestational diabetes in women with obstetrical cholestasis.

resultsA total of 16,748 patients with obstetrical cholestasis from 21 studies were included. The prevalence of gestational diabetes in women with obstetrical cholestasis was 13.9% (20 studies analyzed). Gestational diabetes was more common in women with obstetrical cholestasis than in women without obstetrical cholestasis (odds ratio, 2.129; 95% confidence interval, 1.697-2.670;10 studies). Gestational diabetes is twice more common in women with severe cholestasis than in women with mild cholestasis (odds ratio, 2.168; 95% confidence interval, 1.429-3.289; 4 studies).

conclusionThere is an increase in the prevalence of gestational diabetes among women diagnosed with obstetrical cholestasis. Compared with women with mild cholestasis, the increased risk of gestational diabetes in women with severe cholestatis is more than doubled. This suggests that the 2 conditions may have some biological similarities that affect clinical outcomes.
