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: Although the underlying causes for preterm birth are thought to be multifactorial irrespective of delivery mode, no study investigated its risk factors amongst cesarean deliveries (CD). Thus, we aimed to identify potential risk factors for the occurrence of preterm birth (PTB) among intrapartum CD. Methods: Data from 1659 singleton intrapartum CDs were retrospectively recruited using medical records and an obstetric database. Gestational age was calculated using the last menstrual period (LMP) and ultrasound report of early onset pregnancy. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify potential risk factors associated with PTB. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were used. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 26.0. Results: In this study, the prevalence of PTB among intrapartum CD was 6.1% (95% CI: 4.9, 7.2%). In the multivariable logistic regression model; grand parity ≥5 (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 2.43, 95% CI: 1.72-4.73), maternal age <20 years (AOR=2.63, 95% CI, 1.03-6.71), maternal age ≥35 years (AOR=3.83, 95% CI, 1.49-5.35), cesarean section scar ≥2 (AOR=4.86, 95% CI: 2.68-8.94), antepartum hemorrhage (AOR=4.37, 95% CI: 2.22-8.63), pregnancy-induced hypertension (AOR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.41-6.04), and premature rupture of membranes (AOR=4.56; 95% CI: 1.95-10.65) were significantly associated with PTB. Conclusion: The current study showed an association between PTB and a multitude of obstetric variables, including grand parity ≥5, CS scar ≥2, antepartum hemorrhage, pregnancy-induced hypertension, and premature rupture of the membrane. Understanding these factors could help to implement improved quality of obstetric and neonatal care to increase survival and reduce morbidity among preterm birth.
