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

Objectives: We aimed to: (a) describe current use of mifepristone for early pregnancy loss (EPL) management in Utah, (b) identify predictors of knowledge pre- and posteducational video, and (c) explore postvideo impacts on the likelihood to use mifepristone. Mifepristone is subject to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) requirements. Methods: Between September 2020 and March 2021 we surveyed Utah clinicians from six specialties caring for people experiencing EPL, recruited through professional organizations and hospital listservs. Participants viewed a 3.5-minute educational video on mifepristone for EPL and completed pre- and postvideo questionnaires. We evaluated predictors of high prevideo and improved postvideo knowledge using random forest regression conditional importance measures and partial dependency plots. We described current mifepristone use and video effects on likelihood to use mifepristone. Results: Of 506 participants, most specialize in emergency medicine (172, 34%) and practice in private settings (253, 51%). Two-thirds had heard of mifepristone (328/471, 70%). Of 176/471 (37%) attempting provision of mifepristone, actual provision occurred for 59% (104/176). Baseline knowledge scores were low (mean 4.81/13 [37%] correct). Predictors of high prevideo knowledge include provision or attempted provision of mifepristone, having heard of mifepristone, providing EPL management expectantly or via medication, and specialty type. Mean postvideo knowledge scores improved by 3.27 points (68% improvement, paired t-test; 95% confidence interval 2.82-3.72, p < 0.0001). Postvideo, 66% (242/364) stated they are much more or somewhat more likely to use mifepristone, with compliance with FDA requirements cited as a barrier to utilization. Conclusions: Among Utah providers, baseline mifepristone knowledge and use for EPL management are low. An educational video improved knowledge and likelihood of use, but FDA REMS requirements continue to be a barrier to including mifepristone in medication management of EPL.
