Bleeding disorders and postpartum hemorrhage by mode of delivery: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Research and practice in thrombosis and haemostasis, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Pregnant persons with bleeding disorders and their potentially affected newborns are at a higher risk of peripartum bleeding complications. The safest mode of delivery for persons with bleeding disorders remains debated, leading to uncertainties in decision-making between the patient and her multidisciplinary team. Objectives: This study aimed to describe maternal outcomes for pregnant persons with bleeding disorders by mode of delivery and to examine whether postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and neonatal hemorrhagic manifestations are associated with the mode of delivery. Methods: We collected retrospective data on pregnant persons with bleeding disorders who delivered at a single center from 2010 to 2021. Descriptive statistics, Fisher exact test, and odds ratios were used for analysis. Results: A total of 82 pregnancies in 56 subjects were included. Hemophilia A and von Willebrand disease represented the largest cohort, at 30% (17/56) each. Overall rates of primary and secondary PPH were 7.3% (6/82) and 17.4% (12/69), respectively. We did not find a statistically significant difference between mode of delivery and PPH. Upon comparing vaginal and cesarian deliveries, we found an odds ratio of 0.7 (95% CI, 0.1-3.4) for primary PPH and 2.6 (95% CI, 0.4-16.4) for secondary PPH. One male newborn with severe hemophilia A was treated for a suspected intracranial hemorrhage. Conclusion: In our cohort, high rates of PPH remained an important complication for pregnant persons with bleeding disorders. There was no significant difference in PPH based on modes of delivery. The small sample size likely limited the power of our study, and consequently, future larger studies are needed.
