1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Objectives: To explore the pregnancy outcomes of fetuses with increased NT thickness. Methods: This was a retrospective study of fetuses with increased NT (≥95th centile) at 11-14 weeks of gestation between January 2020 and November 2020. Results: Among 264 fetuses with increased NT, the median of CRL and NT was 61.2 mm and 2.41 mm. Among them, 132 pregnancy women chose invasive prenatal diagnosis (43 cases of chorionic villus sampling (CVS), 89 cases of amniocentesis). Eventually, 16 cases of chromosomal abnormalities were discovered, including 6 cases (6.4%) of trisomy 21, 4 cases (3%) of trisomy 18, 1 case (0.8%) of 45, XO, 1 case (0.8%) of 47, XXY and 4 cases (3.03%) of CNV abnormalities. The major structural defects included hydrops (6.4%), cardiac defects (3%), and urinary anomalies (2.7%). The incidences of chromosomal abnormalities and structural defects in the NT < 2.5 mm group were 1.3 and 6%, while the incidences were 8.8 and 28.9% in the NT≥2.5 group. Conclusion: Increased NT was associated with high risk of chromosomal abnormalities and structural anomalies. Chromosomal abnormalities and structural defects could be detected when NT thickness was between 95th centile and 2.5 mm.
