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: Cardiovascular conditions are the leading cause of maternal mortality in North America. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between cardiovascular severe maternal morbidity (CSMM) and mortality during delivery hospitalization. Methods: We performed a cohort study using the Health Care Cost and Utilization Project, Nationwide Inpatient Sample, and identified delivery hospitalizations with CSMM from 1999 to 2015. We described temporal trends in the incidence of CSMM and its associated case-fatality. Among individuals with CSMM, we evaluated the association between participant characteristics and mortality using logistic regression analyses. Results: Of 13,791,605 delivery hospitalizations, 11,152 were complicated by CSMM. Of those, 495 resulted in mortality. The overall incidence of CSMM was 8.09 per 10,000 delivery hospitalizations (95% CI: 7.94-8.24), increasing from 7.76 to 8.38 per 10,000 delivery hospitalizations over 15 years ( Conclusions: The incidence of CSMM increased over 15 years, reflecting transformations within the obstetric population. Although it decreased during the study period, case-fatality from CSMM remained elevated. Several factors associated with mortality from CSMM were identified.
