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

objectiveTo explore the risk factors and develop a predictive model for postpartum hemorrhage in twin pregnancies.

methodsAll patients who gave birth at Ningbo Women and Children's Hospital from January 2018 to August 2022 were recruited. Patients were randomly allocated to a training cohort (n[Formula: see text]1395) validation cohort (n[Formula: see text]650) at a 7:3 ratio. In the training cohort, LASSO regression for screening variables and multifactorial logistic regression analysis were performed to identify independent risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage in twin pregnancies. A nomogram was established based on the results of multiple logistic regression analysis. Nomogram performance was quantified using the receiver operating characteristic curve, Hosmer- Lemeshow test and decision curve analysis.

resultsA total of 2045 patients were included in this study. Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed maternal age, assisted reproduction, platelet count, fibrinogen level, albumin level, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, placenta praevia, number of previous cesarean deliveries, number of previous intrauterine manipulation, and neonatal weight were independent risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage in twin births. The area under curve (AUC) for the training cohort was 0.810 [95[Formula: see text] CI (0.781, 0.839)], with a sensitivity of 76.5[Formula: see text], specificity of 71.0[Formula: see text], and positive and negative predictive values of 0.358 and 0.935, respectively, while the AUC for the validation cohort was 0.821 [95[Formula: see text] CI (0.781, 0.860)], with a sensitivity of 80.9[Formula: see text], specificity of 69.49[Formula: see text], and positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 0.426 and 0.929, respectively.

conclusionThe predictive model can effectively and quantitatively assess the risk of postpartum hemorrhage in twin pregnancies and help clinicians to take personalized preventive measures.
