Can Stria Gravidarum Predict Surgical Fluid Loss in Cesarean Section?

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
introductionAlterations in collagen subtypes and matrix can potentially cause fluid loss in surgery which is important in terms of liquid loss.
objectivesThe study aimed to analyze stria gravidarum (SG) and its severity in pregnant women who had undergone cesarean section (CS) and to evaluate surgical fluid loss (SFL) that occurred during CS operation.
methodsThe research was designed as a prospective clinical cohort study to compare the amount of SFL in the second cesarean section with the severity of SG at 34-37 weeks pregnant (N 308). The severity of SG was evaluated in the preoperative period using the Davey scoring. All patients were defined none, mild stria and severe stria. The SFL was calculated by weighing the pre-and post-operative weights of the sponges.
resultsThe weight gain (P = 0.008) and body mass index (BMI, P = 0.017) gradually increased toward severe SG. In correlation analysis of SFL, a positive correlation was found with Davey (r=0.791; P = 0.0001), weight gained during pregnancy (r=0.328; P = 0.0001), BMI (r=0.453; P = 0.001) and newborn weight (r=0.139; P = 0.003). In the receiver operating characteristic for the predictability of SG severity on SFL, severe SG showed a potential for SFL with 95.1% specificity and 93.2% sensitivity at 791 cut-offs (area under the curve:0.987; P = 0.00001; 95% confidence interval: 0.977-0.997).
conclusionsThe SG severity and SFL showed a very strong relationship, which was a very important finding that would affect the approach of the surgeons to the patients with SG in terms of fluid loss in CS.
