A nomogram to predict preterm birth in twin pregnancies.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeTo investigate risk factors for preterm birth in twin pregnancies, and to establish a nomogram model for predicting preterm birth and verify its application value.
methodsData from 266 twin pregnancies between January 2015 and December 2020 were analyzed in this retrospective study. According to the gestational weeks of delivery, the included subjects were divided into a preterm birth group (gestational age < 37 weeks) and a full-term group (gestational age ≥ 37 weeks). The general situation and pregnancy complications of the two groups were analyzed by univariate analysis, and the factors with statistical significance were entered into multivariate logistic regression analysis. Furthermore, the nomogram model for predicting the risk of preterm birth was established by using R. The predictive effect of the model was evaluated by the area under the ROC curve, C-index, and decision curve analysis.
resultsDemographic characteristics and their associations with preterm birth and full-term birth in twin pregnancies were summarized and analyzed. After validation, we identified the following significant predictors of preterm birth: chorionic status, inconsistent development of twins, premature rupture of membranes, fetal distress, scar uterus, and preeclampsia. Overall, we constructed preterm risk nomogram model with C-index of 0.783. A nomogram using a 0-100 scale illustrated our final model for predicting preterm birth in twin pregnancies.
conclusionsWe developed and validated a clinical nomogram to predict preterm birth in twin pregnancy. Chorionic status, inconsistent development of twins, premature rupture of membranes, fetal distress, scar uterus, and preeclampsia were independent risk predictors for preterm birth in twin pregnancy.
