Maternal outcomes of planned mode of delivery for term breech in nulliparous women.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo estimate short- and long-term maternal complications in relation to planned mode of term breech delivery in first pregnancy.
designRegister-based cohort study.
settingDenmark. POPULATION: Nulliparous women with singleton breech delivery at term between 1991 and 2018 (n = 30,778).
methodsWe used data from the Danish national health registries to identify nulliparous women with singleton breech presentation at term and their subsequent pregnancies. We performed logistic regression to compare the risks of maternal complications by planned mode of delivery. All data were proceeded and statistical analyses were performed in SAS 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc. Cary, NC, USA).
main outcome measuresPostpartum hemorrhage, operative complications, puerperal infections in first pregnancy and uterine rupture, placenta previa, post-partum hemorrhage, hysterectomy and stillbirth in the subsequent two pregnancies.
resultsWe identified 19,187 with planned cesarean and 9,681 with planned vaginal breech delivery of which 2,970 (30.7%) delivered vaginally. Planned cesarean significantly reduced the risk of postoperative infections (2.4% vs 3.9% adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 0.54 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.44-0.66) and surgical organ lesions (0.06% vs 0.1%; (aOR): 0.29 95% CI 0.11-0.76) compared to planned vaginal breech delivery. Planned cesarean delivery in the first pregnancy was associated with a significantly higher risk of uterine rupture in the subsequent pregnancies but not with risk of postpartum hemorrhage, placenta previa, hysterectomy, or stillbirth.
conclusionCompared to planned vaginal breech delivery at term, nulliparous women with planned cesarean breech delivery have a significantly reduced risk of postoperative complications but a higher risk of uterine rupture in their subsequent pregnancies.
