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

introductionA cross-sectional study retrospectively evaluating the perceived usefulness of attending a multi-disciplinary, roundtable, educational prenatal clinic for mothers expecting children with myelomeningocele is presented.

methodsMothers who currently have children with SB completed a survey which evaluated their overall preparedness, spina bifida education, delivery plans, surgical expectations, and expectations in terms of quality of life and development. Open comments were also collected. Statistical analysis was performed to identify differences between those who attended prenatal counseling and those who did not.

resultsApproximately half of these mothers received some form of prenatal SB counseling. Mothers who attended prenatal counseling reported that they felt more informed and prepared throughout their pregnancy, during the delivery of their child and during their initial hospital stay than mothers who did not. They reported that the roundtable discussions were beneficial, and the education they received was useful in helping them form accurate expectations and feel more at ease.

conclusionThis suggests that prenatal counseling and the High-Risk Pregnancy Clinic (HRPC) provides perceived utility to families and mothers and that the HRPC is an effective method of providing prenatal counseling to mothers whose unborn children have been diagnosed with myelomeningocele.
