Pregnancy With Uterine Fibroids: Obstetric Outcome at a Tertiary Care Hospital of Central India.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundUterine fibroids are the most frequent benign tumor of the female reproductive system, with a significantly lower frequency in pregnancy. This could be due to the fact that uterine fibroids are linked to infertility and low implantation rates following in vitro fertilization (IVF). The goal of this study was to look at the obstetrics outcomes of uterine fibroids and their consequences in a tertiary hospital. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe current study was a observational cohort study that evaluated the cases of pregnancy with fibroid. Study was undertaken at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology (OBGY) at a medical college in central India and it was conducted over a period of nine months from 1st November 2021 to 31st July 2022. All pregnant women who had an ultrasonography (USG)-documented uterine fibroid diagnosed prenatally or antenatally were enrolled. All demographic information, laboratory and USG results were noted and their mode of delivery, obstetric complications, if any, and neonatal outcomes were evaluated.
resultsA total of 110 cases were enrolled as per inclusion and exclusion criteria. The majority of patients (42.73%) were in the 26- to 30-year-old age group. In this study, the majority of cases were carried to term (80.9%). The most prevalent mode of delivery was caesarean section (61.82%). Major complications during pregnancy were threatened preterm labor (21.82%), and blood transfusion (20.00%), whereas postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) occurred in 9.09% cases, and 47 patients (42.72%) were asymptomatic throughout pregnancy. Major neonatal outcomes in our study were neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) hospitalization (20%), required neonatal resuscitation (14.55%), and neonatal mortality occurring in 1.82% cases. Gestational age at termination of pregnancy, when compared with different characteristics of fibroid, like type (p value 0.663), location (p value 0.552) and number of fibroid (p value 0.112), did not show any significant association. Similarly, maternal complications also did not show significant association (p value >0.05) with different characters of fibroid. Conclusion: Pregnancies with fibroid are high-risk pregnancies that are linked to difficulties throughout the antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum periods, as well as increased chances of cesarean delivery and PPH.
