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

Objective: To identify independent predictors for vaginal delivery after induction of labor after one cesarean (IOLAC). Study design: In this retrospective cohort study, the electronic medical record of 19064 women who delivered from January 2018-September 2022 in a university hospital in Malaysia were individually searched to identify cases of IOLAC. Preselected data points on characteristics and the outcome of mode of delivery were retrieved. Bivariate analysis was performed to identify predictor characteristics for the dichotomous outcomes of vaginal delivery vs unplanned cesarean delivery. Variables with crude p < 0.05 were incorporated into a multivariable binary logistic regression analysis to identify independent predictors of vaginal delivery after IOLAC. Results: 819 IOLAC cases were identified. There were 465/819 (56.5 %) unplanned cesareans deliveries. Of the 14 selected characteristics, eight had p < 0.05 on bivariate analysis. After adjustment, six characteristics, body mass index, height, ethnicity, parity, previous cesarean indication and Bishop score were independently predictive of vaginal birth but not maternal age or method of labor induction. Birthweight, labor induction indication, gestational age, haemoglobin level, diabetes and hypertension in pregnancy were not significant at the level of bivariate analysis. Conclusion: Obesity, short stature, no prior vaginal delivery, previous cesarean indicated by failure to progress, unfavorable Bishop score and ethnicity were independent predictors for unplanned cesarean after IOLAC. These predictors should help guide women and their care providers in their shared decision-making about IOLAC.
