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

objectivesTo identify the factors influencing spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB) and develop a prediction model for clinical practice.

methodsThis retrospective study included a total of 130 pregnant women with spontaneous preterm birth or full-term delivery at Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital between January 2020 and December 2023. The SPTB group consisted of 50 women with spontaneous preterm birth, while the full-term group included 70 women with full-term deliveries. Logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the factors associated with clinical prognosis, and a nomogram prediction model for SPTB risk was constructed and validated.

resultsMultivariate logistic regression analysis identified multiple pregnancies (95% CI: 1.415-8.926, P=0.006), abnormal fetal position (95% CI: 1.124-2.331, P=0.008), gestational diabetes (95% CI: 4.918-19.164, P=0.002), mode of conception (95% CI: 1.765-4.285,P=0.002), lower genital tract infection (95% CI: 1.076-2.867, P=0.032), and second trimester cervical length (95% CI: 1.071-2.991, P=0.031) as independent risk factors of SPTB. Using these six variables, a nomogram was developed to predict the incidence of SPTB, with an AUC value of 0.833 (95% CI: 0.665-0.847), demonstrating acceptable agreement between predicted and observed outcomes. Decision curve analysis (DCA) showed a good positive net benefit of the model.

conclusionsMultiple pregnancies, abnormal fetal position, gestational diabetes, mode of conception, lower genital tract infection, and second-trimester cervical length are independent risk factors for the onset of SPTB. In addition, the nomogram prediction model demonstrated good predictive performance, high accuracy, and clinical applicability.
