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

backgroundThe novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has had consequences on the pregnant population, as disease severity is associated with the quality of maternal health and pregnancy complications, increasing maternal and neonatal morbidity. Worldwide descriptive data help describe risk factors that could predict symptomatic and severe COVID-19 in pregnancy.

objectivesTo describe demographic features and risk factors of pregnant women with COVID-19 in Qatar and compare symptomatic versus asymptomatic disease. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY: Clinical characteristics and risk factors of pregnant women with COVID-19 in Qatar from March 2020 to March 2021 was retrospectively reviewed, comparing the cohort with the general pregnant population. Crude and adjusted odds ratios (aORs) were computed, comparing symptomatic versus asymptomatic infection.

resultsOf the 500 women, 347 reported at least one symptom at diagnosis (347/500; 69.4%). The majority fell in the 30-39 years age group (241/500; 48%), with more than half in the obese body mass index (BMI) category. The cohort was 66% (332/500) Qatari women, compared with the 26% expected in the population (26.4% vs 66.4%

conclusionsThis study cohort included significantly more Qatari women, older women, grand multiparous women, a higher proportion with pre-existing and gestational diabetes, and higher BMI than national data. In addition, contact to a patient with symptomatic disease, history of asthma, older age, and earlier gestational age at diagnosis were significantly associated with symptomatic disease.
