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

objectiveIn this study, we aimed to investigate how fetal head and abdominal circumferences are related to the incidence of neonatal complications in mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and pre-gestational diabetes mellitus (PGDM) compared to normal pregnancies.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed data of expectant mothers with GDM, PGDM, and normal pregnancies who delivered singleton full-term infants (≥37 weeks) at a tertiary center from January 2013 to December 2022. Ultrasonography-measured fetal weight, fetal head circumference, fetal abdominal circumference, difference between head and abdominal circumference, and head-to-abdominal circumference ratio were assessed. Neonatal outcomes were evaluated based on the rates of admission to the neonatal intensive care unit, intubation, and hypoglycemia. Statistical analyses, including univariate and multivariate analyses, were performed using the SPSS software (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA).

resultsAmong the 473 participants, 175 (37.0%) were mothers with diabetes (DM). A head-to-abdominal circumference ratio <0.95 and a difference of ≥2.5 cm were significantly associated with neonatal hypoglycemia in all mothers with DM, with statistical significance noted only in the PGDM group. No significant association was observed in normal pregnancies.

conclusionOur findings indicate that a head-to-abdominal circumference ratio <0.95 and a ≥2.5 cm difference in circumferences are associated with neonatal hypoglycemia in mothers with DM.
