Placental thickness in 2D prenatal ultrasonographic examination.
Article in Archives of medical science : AMS, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: The placental thickness (PTh) is an ultrasonographic measurement commonly used to assess the placenta. The study aimed to determine selected factors influencing PTh in 2D prenatal ultrasonographic examination. It might have a special value in difficult cases for interpretation when PTh is above or below the reference values. Material and methods: In this retrospective study, we analysed the results of foetal ECHO examination of 2833 foetuses performed between June 2016 and December 2019 in our single unit. 596 healthy foetuses older than 12 weeks of gestation from singleton pregnancies were enrolled in the study. The following parameters were used in the further analysis: placental implantation site, gestational age according to the last menstrual period (LMP) and foetal biometry (FB); maternal weight, height, and body mass index (BMI) at the time of examination; and PTh. Results: PTh was affected by its location: posterior 33 mm vs. anterior 30 mm ( Conclusions: Our observations suggest that maternal weight correlated more strongly with PTh than maternal BMI. For PTh evaluation, it is important to pay attention to the placental implantation site - the posterior placenta was thicker than the anterior placenta. Moreover, PTh variability remains largely unknown; therefore, further research in this field is needed.
