Birth Weight < 3rd Percentile Prediction Using Additional Biochemical Markers-The Uric Acid Level and Angiogenesis Markers (sFlt-1, PlGF)-An Exploratory Study.

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
(1) Aim: Ultrasound is the gold standard for assessing fetal growth disorders. The relationship between high sFlt-1/PlGF scores and LBW (low birth weight) was described. In this study, we attempted to assess whether uric acid could be used as a secondary marker in estimating the pregnancy risk associated with LBW. (2) Material and methods: 665 pregnant women with a suspected or confirmed form of placental insufficiency were enrolled. In each of the patients, sFlt-1 and PlGF and uric acid levels were determined. Patients were divided into two groups according to birth weight below and above the third percentile for the given gestational age with the criteria of the neonatal definition of FGR (fetal growth restriction). (3) Results: A significant negative correlation between neonatal birth weight and the uric acid level across the entire study group was observed. We found a significant negative correlation between neonatal birth weight and the uric acid level with birth weights < 3rd percentile. (4) Conclusions: There is a significant link between the uric acid concentration and LBW in the group with placental insufficiency. Uric acid can improve the prediction of LBW. An algorithm for LBW prognosis that makes use of biophysical (ultrasound) and biochemical (uric acid level, angiogenesis markers) parameters yields better results than using these parameters separately from each other.
