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

This prospective cohort study aimed to evaluate the safety of an inactivated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine in pregnant women at a tertiary hospital in Hubei, China. Pregnancy outcomes were compared between pregnant vaccinated and unvaccinated women. Composite adverse pregnancy outcomes were defined as one or more of maternal adverse outcomes (prenatal pyrexia, postpartum hemorrhage, maternal intensive care unit admission, and a prethrombotic state) and adverse neonatal outcomes (premature delivery, intrauterine fetal death or induction of labor, fetal macrosomia, fetal growth restriction, small-for-gestational age, fetal abnormalities, neonatal admission to the neonatal intensive care unit, and birth asphyxia). Of a total of 845 participants in the delivery cohort, 41.2% (348/845) received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccination, and 33.6% (284/845) received two doses. In total, 25.3% (88/348) of the vaccinated group were vaccinated at 0-4 weeks of pregnancy. No significant difference was found in the composite adverse outcomes between the vaccinated and unvaccinated participants, regardless of whether vaccination occurred before (44/243 [18.1%] vs. 71/497 [14.3%];
