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

A high systolic/diastolic (S/D) ratio of umbilical cord blood is a manifestation of intrauterine hypoxia. However, the clinical significance of a persistently decreased S/D ratio of umbilical cord blood has not been reported. We report eight cases of a persistently decreased S/D ratio of umbilical cord blood, with two cases of umbilical thrombus, five cases of excessive torsion, and one case of a true cord knot. Fetuses with a persistently decreased S/D ratio of umbilical cord blood may be at risk, and it may be an important indication of umbilical cord lesions.
