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

backgroundPersistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is the most common venous system variant. The clinical characteristics and amniotic fluid cytogenetics of fetuses with PLSVC remain to be further explored.

aimTo develop reliable prenatal diagnostic recommendations through integrated analysis of the clinical characteristics of fetuses with PLSVC.

methodsCases of PLSVC diagnosed using prenatal ultrasonography between September 2019 and November 2022 were retrospectively studied. The clinical characteristics of the pregnant women, ultrasonic imaging information, gestational age at diagnosis, pregnancy outcomes, and amniocentesis results were summarized and analyzed using categorical statistics and the chi-square test or Fisher's exact test.

resultsOf the 97 cases diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound, 49 (50.5%) had isolated PLSVC and 48 (49.5%) had other structural abnormalities. The differences in pregnancy outcomes and amniocentesis conditions between the two groups were statistically significant (

conclusionExamination for other structural abnormalities is strongly recommended when PLSVC is diagnosed. Poorer pregnancy outcomes and increased amniocentesis were observed in PLSVC cases with other structural abnormalities. Amniotic fluid cytogenetics of fetuses is recommended for PLSVC with other structural abnormalities.
