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

We hypothesized that patients at our hospital who received general anesthesia as the initial anesthetic technique for dilation and curettage for loss of pregnancy during the first or second trimesters would have a higher estimated blood loss compared to patients who had sedation. We searched our electronic medical record system for patients who had a dilation and curettage for the indication of loss of pregnancy during the first or second trimesters from July 1, 2018, to June 30, 2021. A total of 165 (72%) and 64 (28%) patients had general anesthesia and sedation, respectively, as the initial anesthetic technique. Patients who had general anesthesia and sedation had estimated blood loss interquartile ranges of 50 to 500 mL and 30 to 100 mL, respectively (
