Umbilical artery thrombosis risk factors and perinatal outcomes.
Article in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors for umbilical artery thrombosis (UAT) and the relationship between umbilical artery thrombosis and perinatal outcomes.
methodsThis was a retrospective study that enrolled singleton pregnant women who were diagnosed with umbilical artery thrombosis. The control group recruited pregnant woman with three umbilical vessels or those with isolated single umbilical artery (iSUA) who were matched with umbilical artery thrombosis group. The risk factors and perinatal outcomes were compared between the groups.
resultsPreconception BMI (OR [95%CI]: 1.212 [1.038-1.416]), abnormal umbilical cord insertion (OR [95%CI]: 16.695 [1.333-209.177]) and thrombophilia (OR [95%CI]: 15.840 [1.112-223.699]) were statistically significant risk factors for umbilical artery thrombosis. An elongated prothrombin time (OR [95%CI]: 2.069[1.091-3.924]) was strongly associated with the occurrence of UAT. The risks of cesarean delivery, preterm birth, fetal growth restriction, neonatal asphyxia, and intraamniotic infection were higher in pregnancies with UAT than in pregnancies with three umbilical vessels or isolated single umbilical artery (P<0.05). Additionally, the incidence of thrombophilia was higher in pregnant women with umbilical artery thrombosis than those with isolated single umbilical artery (P = 0.032). Abnormal umbilical cord insertion was also found to be associated with an elevated risk of iSUA (OR [95%CI]: 15.043[1.750-129.334]).
conclusionsAbnormal umbilical cord insertion was the risk factor for both umbilical artery thrombosis and isolated single umbilical artery. The pregnancies with umbilical artery thrombosis had a higher risk of the adverse perinatal outcomes.
