Predictors of vaginal delivery following balloon catheter for labor induction in women with one previous cesarean.
Article in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to estimate predictors for vaginal birth following balloon catheter induction of labor (IOL) in women with one previous cesarean section (CS) and an unfavorable cervix.
methodsThis 4-year retrospective cohort study was conducted in Longhua District Central Hospital in Shenzhen China, between January 2015 and December 2018. Patients with one previous CS and a current singleton-term pregnancy who underwent balloon catheter cervical ripening and IOL were enrolled. Univariate analysis was used to identify predictive factors associated with vaginal birth after cesarean section (VBAC). Binary logistic regression was further used to identify which factors were independently associated with the outcome measure. The primary outcome was VBAC, which was a successful trial of labor after cesarean delivery (TOLAC) following IOL.
resultsA total of 69.57% (208/299) of the women who planned for IOL had VBAC. In the final binary logistic regression equation, lower fetal weight (< 4000 g) (odds ratio [OR]5.26; 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.09,13.27), lower body mass index (BMI,<30 kg/m
conclusionsThe influencing factors of VBAC following IOL were fetal weight, BMI, and Bishop score after cervical ripening. Adequate individualized management and assessment of the IOL may help improve the VBAC rate.
