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

Our prior findings showed that BCL2A1 in neutrophils is highly expressed in the extra-placental membranes (EPMs) of both the human spontaneous preterm-birth (PTB) (i.e., PTL or preterm PROM) and nonhuman-primate PTB model. However, no data exist on whether the intensity of BCL2A1 expression quantitatively increases according to the stage progression of acute histologic chorioamnionitis (acute HCA) in EPM. The objective is to investigate whether the intensity of BCL2A1 expression quantitatively increases according to the stage progression of acute HCA in EPM among spontaneous PTB cases, as measured using QuPath. The study population included 121 singleton PTBs (gestational age [GA] at delivery < 34 weeks) due to either preterm labor or preterm PROM. With digital image analysis, we calculated the percentage of BCL2A1-positive cells in immunohistochemistry according to the stage progression of acute HCA in EPMs as the primary outcome and examined the relationship between the percentage of BCL2A1-positive cells and either the GA at delivery or the amniotic-fluid (AF) WBC count as the secondary outcome. The median percentage of BCL2A1-positive cells progressively increases with the stage progression of acute HCA in EPM (group-1 vs. group-2 vs. group-3 vs. group-4 vs. group-5; 7.62 vs. 5.15 vs. 43.57 vs. 71.07; γ = 0.552,
