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

Clinical value of pelvimetry in modern obstetrics practices has never been established and normal values are set since the middle of the twentieth century. The aim of this study was to describe current dimensions of pelvis in a female French Caucasian population. A retrospective, bi-centric observational study was conducted from August 2013 to August 2019 in two French departments of Obstetrics. We included all Caucasian women who had a computed tomography pelvimetry during pregnancy. The primary outcome was the values of the obstetric transverse diameter, obstetric conjugate diameter and bispinous diameter. Five hundred and fifty-one CT pelvimetries were analyzed. The median Obstetric Transverse Diameter (OTD) was 12.41 cm and the 3rd percentile was 11 cm. The median Obstetric Conjugate Diameter (OCD) was 12.2 cm and the 3rd percentile was 10.5 cm. The median Bispinous Diameter (BSD) in our data collection was 10.9 cm and the 3rd percentile was 9.3 cm. A significant correlation coefficient between women's height and OTD, OCD and BSD was found. In our study, the OCD and the BSD have not evolved since the middle of the twentieth century. The obstetric transverse diameter was smaller than the standard currently used.
