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

Background: Asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) during pregnancy can lead to symptomatic urinary tract infection (UTI), with increased fetal and maternal morbidity and mortality. We evaluated the incidence, clinical and microbiological profile, and outcome of ASB in pregnant women attending our antenatal clinic. Materials and Methods: This prospective study was conducted on 3769 pregnant women in a routine antenatal clinic at a tertiary care center. Participants were divided into two groups, ASB and non-bacteriuria. Data were collected in a standard proforma and analyzed using the software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) v. 20. Results: The incidence of ASB was 3.29% (124/3769). Majority of the women were in the age group of 21-30 years (78.76%, Conclusion: ASB was associated with maternal anemia, preterm delivery, intrauterine death, and LBW. Early detection and treatment of ASB may result in favorable maternal outcome.
