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

backgroundGlobally, various studies have reported that most adverse perinatal outcomes were associated with maternal near-misses. In Ethiopia, studies on adverse perinatal outcomes from maternal near-miss are scarce.

objectiveThis study aimed to assess the incidence, determinants, and maternal near-miss effects on perinatal outcomes among women at public hospitals in the South Gondar zone in 2021. STUDY

designA facility-based prospective cohort study was conducted from January 10, 2021, to May 10, 2021. The chi-square test, multivariable logistic regression methods, and SPSS software were used. The strength of associations and significance level were examined using

resultsA total of 304 respondents (76 exposed and 228 unexposed) were included in the study with a response rate of 100.0%. The incidence rates of adverse perinatal outcomes among exposed and unexposed groups were 71.1% (95% confidence interval, 60.0-73.8) and 21.1% (95% confidence interval, 15.8-28.8), respectively. Multivariable logistic regression showed that short interbirth interval (adjusted odds ratio, 8.39; 95% confidence interval, 5.36-16.08), lower household income (adjusted odds ratio, 3.61; 95% confidence interval, 1.12-6.54), rural residence (adjusted odds ratio, 2.54; 95% confidence interval, 1.21-4.07), previous stillbirth (adjusted odds ratio, 4.24; 95% confidence interval, 1.04-17.31), absence of antenatal care (adjusted odds ratio, 9.84; 95% confidence interval, 4.89-17.51), and anemia (adjusted odds ratio, 4.19; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-17.46) were significantly associated with increased odds of adverse perinatal outcomes.

conclusionThis study revealed that the incidence of adverse perinatal outcomes was significantly higher among exposed groups than unexposed groups. The result signified the need for improving the health of mothers by all stakeholders to improve perinatal outcomes.
