Intrauterine death from placental abruption: influence of labor duration and mode of delivery on maternal outcomes.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Introduction: Intrauterine fetal death (IUFD) caused by retroplacental hematoma (RPH) can lead to serious maternal complications including coagulopathies and hemorrhage. A prolonged diagnostic-to-expulsion delay may increase coagulation risks. Vaginal delivery (VD) prolongs this delay, while cesarean delivery poses higher hemorrhagic risks. This study aimed to assess the relationship between expulsion delay and complications, identify a time threshold for increased risks, and evaluate VD feasibility. Material and methods: We conducted a retrospective single-center study at the University Hospital of Martinique, including all patients presenting with RPH and IUFD between January 2003 and December 2022. Complications were defined by a composite criterion, including the need for blood transfusion, severe anemia or admission to an intensive care unit. Results: VD was attempted in 26 of the 27 patients included and successfully achieved in 85% of the cases. All cesarean deliveries resulted in complications ( Conclusion: In this study, no evidence was found to suggest an association between the diagnostic-to-expulsion interval and maternal complications. Low fibrinogen levels at admission appear to be a prognostic factor for severe hemorrhage and could have therapeutic implications. Vaginal delivery remains feasible even in the presence of coagulopathies at admission.
