Maternal and neonatal factors associated with cesarean delivery in a cohort of pregnancies complicated by prenatally diagnosed congenital heart disease.

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
backgroundPregnancies with prenatally diagnosed congenital heart disease (CHD) have increased cesarean delivery (CD) rates, with no outcome improvement.
objectiveWe aim to examine indications for delivery, indications for CD and risk factors associated with CD. STUDY
designRetrospective cohort of 322 singleton pregnancies prenatally diagnosed with moderate to severe CHD. We compared maternal and fetal factors correlated with delivery route.
resultsCD rate was 46% (95% CI 40, 51%). Of all CD, 31.3% (95% CI 23.8, 38.7) were secondary to urgent fetal indications. However, 79.7% of inductions resulted in vaginal delivery (VD). Factors associated with CD include morbid obesity (RR 3.0, 95% CI 1.5, 6.1), diabetes (RR 3.9, 95% CI 2.0, 7.3) and severe pre-eclampsia (6.0, 95% CI 1.7, 21.4). Of the 10 most frequent CHD diagnoses, only hypoplastic-left-heart was associated with CD (OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.02, 3.4).
conclusionsAlthough the CD rate is higher in fetal CHD, most indications for CD are maternal.
