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

G3P2L1, 28+4 weeks of gestation rhesus (Rh) isoimmunised pregnant women, was referred with trichorionic triamniotic triplet pregnancy with Rh antibody titres of 1:32. Nuchal translucency and anomaly scan were within normal limits with no major malformation for any of the fetuses. Obstetric colour Doppler with middle cerebral artery peak systolic volume revealed foetal anaemia in all three fetuses having velocities corresponding to around 1.5 times the median. Decision of intrauterine transfusion of blood to all three fetuses was taken. Access to fetuses was challenging and expertise in interventional ultrasound was required for transfusion. The patient tolerated the procedure well and eventually went on to deliver uneventfully at 34 weeks of gestation for worsening pre-eclampsia. After birth, all three triplets received triple-surface intensive phototherapy and intravenous immunoglobulin at a dosage of 1 g/kg. Phototherapy was gradually reduced and discontinued within 72 hours, and the infants were discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit at 96 hours of age.
