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

introductionDecreased fetal movement is a common reason for consultation. It can reveal an intrauterine death or fetal distress.

aimTo evaluate the epidemiological profile of decreased fetal movement and to identify the predictive factors of poor pregnancy outcome.

methodsWe performed a retrospective and descriptive study in the department of Maternity between January 2015 and December 2019 including patients hospitalized for decreased fetal movements.

resultsThe study included 150 patients with a mean age of 30.7±5.8 years. The patients were primiparous in 45.3% of cases. The mean term of pregnancy was 37.17±2.97 weeks. Cardiotocography was pathological in 22.7% of patients. The delivery rate during the hospitalization was 87.3% with a mean term of 37.9±2.5 SA. Poor pregnancy outcome was noted in 22.1% of cases. The identified predictive factors of poor pregnancy outcome were: gestational term less than 37 weeks (ORa=9.42), insufficient prenatal care (ORa=2.85), delayed maternal reporting of decreased fetal movement (ORa=1.29), complications during pregnancy (ORa=3.01), small symphysiofundal height for gestational age (ORa=6.17), pathological cardiotocography (ORa=1.66), fetal growth restriction (ORa=6.17), abnormal Umbilical Artery Doppler (ORa=6.51).

conclusionDecreased fetal movement can be a false alarm but it is important to identify predictive factors of poor pregnancy outcome to recognize patients at increased risk and optimize their management.
