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

Complete hydatidiform mole with coexisting fetus (CHMCF) is rare, and diagnosis is challenging due to limited data. Here, we present the case of a patient with noninvasive prenatal test (NIPT) resulting in "likely molar pregnancy" in the second trimester. Subsequent ultrasound confirmed a cystic appearing portion of the placenta. At 22 weeks, the patient delivered a demised fetus and two placentas. Pathology was consistent with CHMCF. This case is the first to show primary detection of a CHMCF with single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based NIPT prior to ultrasound identification. Our case suggests the use of SNP-based NIPT as an alternative noninvasive method to guide shared decision-making and clinical management for patients with this diagnosis.
