Etiology and perinatal outcomes between early and late-onset nonimmune hydrops fetalis.
Article in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 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
objectiveWe aimed to compare the etiology and perinatal outcomes of non-immune hydrops fetalis diagnosed early- and late-onset at our hospital.
methodsThe records of the patients who applied to our department were reviewed, and we reached 42 non-immune hydrops fetalis cases retrospectively and examined the medical records. Hydrops diagnosis week, birth week, accompanying anomalies, and perinatal outcomes were compared as ≤12 weeks (early-onset) and >12 weeks (late-onset).
resultsThe prevalence of non-immune hydrops fetalis was 0.05%, and the median week of diagnosis for hydrops was 18 weeks. Consanguinity (16.7%) was found in seven pregnancies, and the other seven patients (16.7%) had a history of hydrops in previous pregnancies. Anomalies of the skeletal system, central nervous system, and gastrointestinal tract accounted for 66.7% of ≤12 weeks in non-immune hydrops fetalis cases. Cardiac abnormalities were more common (26.7%) in patients at > 12 weeks (p=0.078). A statistically significant difference was found between the distribution of week of birth and week of diagnosis (p=0.029). Notably, 66.7% of patients diagnosed before week 12 and 23.3% of patients diagnosed after week 12 delivered their babies before week 24. Spontaneous intrauterine death occurred before week 12 in 45.5% (n=5) of non-immune hydrops fetalis and after week 12 in 39.1% (n=9) of non-immune hydrops fetalis. Notably, 69.2% (n=9) of the patients who had prenatal invasive testing resulted in normal karyotype.
conclusionIn this study, most of the fetuses diagnosed with early-onset non-immune hydrops fetalis were born in the first 24 weeks. Additionally, live birth rates and cardiac anomalies were observed to be higher in late-onset non-immune hydrops fetalis.
