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

Cesarean section for breech presentation is often recommended. However, cesarean section affects future reproduction. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of mode of the first birth in breech on outcomes of the second birth and the two births together. This is a register-based nationwide cohort study including 23 062 women with a first singleton birth in breech ≥ 34 gestational weeks and a subsequent singleton birth in Sweden 2000-2019. Exposure was mode of first delivery. Main maternal outcome was a composite of fourth-degree perineal injury, postpartum hemorrhage requiring blood transfusion, hysterectomy, or death. Main infant outcome was a composite of stillbirth, extremely preterm birth (< 28 weeks), moderate to severe hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, therapeutic hypothermia, or death. Outcomes were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression. In the first birth, the infant composite outcome affected < 1% in both groups but the risk was higher in the vaginal breech group (13/1525), compared with the breech CS group (27/21 537), aOR 7.06, 95% CI 2.91-17.1. In the second birth, the infant composite outcome affected < 1% in both groups but the risk was lower for the first vaginal breech group (3/1525) compared with the first breech CS group (152/21 537), aOR 0.26, 95% CI 0.08-0.84. There was no significant difference between the groups in risk of composite infant outcome in the two births assessed together, or in risk of composite maternal outcome. In total, the chance of a two-children family without maternal or infant severe adverse composite outcome was high and similar regardless mode of the breech first birth.
