Uteroplacental-Cerebral Ratio: A Doppler Parameter for Prognostic Prediction of Late-Onset Fetal Growth Restriction: Single Center Prospective Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Purpose: This study aimed to elucidate the accuracy of Doppler parameters in predicting the prognosis of late-onset fetal growth restriction (FGR). Methods: This was a prospective study of 114 pregnancies. Doppler parameters, including the cerebroplacental ratio and pulsatility index (PI) in the middle cerebral, umbilical, uterine artery, were recorded. The new uteroplacental−cerebro ratio (UPCR) was constructed as the ratio of (umbilical artery + mean of the left and right uterine artery) to middle cerebral artery PI. Logistic regression analyses and receiver operating characteristic curves were performed. Results: Adverse outcomes occurred in 37 (32%) neonates. The z values of the middle cerebral artery PI and cerebroplacental ratio were lower (p < 0.001), while the z values of the umbilical artery PI, mean uterine artery PI, and UPCR (p < 0.001) were higher in late-onset FGR in those with compared to those without adverse outcomes. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that only UPCR was independently associated with adverse outcomes (p < 0.001). For predicting the prognosis of late-onset FGR, UPCR showed a fair degree of accuracy (area under the curve [AUC], 0.824). Conclusion: The new UPCR, reflecting the impact of placental impedance from both fetal and maternal sides on fetal well-being, improves the accuracy of prognostic prediction for late-onset FGR.
