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

Objective: To study and compare the clinical effects of cervical pessary and progesterone for preventing preterm birth in singleton pregnant women with a short cervical length (CL). Methods: This study was a prospective cohort study. A total of 148 pregnant women with CL≤25 mm, as determined by ultrasound examination performed before 28 weeks of pregnancy, were included in the study. All subjects were admitted to West China Second Hospital, Sichuan University between August 2020 and December 2022. According to their treatment plans, the pregnant women were divided into a cervical pessary group ( Results: There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of preterm birth (including iatrogenic preterm birth, spontaneous preterm birth, and abortion) before 37, 34, 32, 30, and 28 weeks between the cervical pessary group and the progesterone group. When iatrogenic preterm birth was excluded, the incidence of spontaneous preterm birth before 37 weeks was lower in the cervical pessary group (23.6%) than that in the progesterone group (41.9%), with the difference between the two groups being statistically significant ( Conclusion: Using cervical pessary to prevent spontaneous preterm birth in singleton pregnant women with a short cervical length in the second trimester can significantly reduce the incidence of spontaneous preterm birth before 37 weeks.
