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

objectiveChromosomal variations are known to play a role in the etiology of fetal growth restriction (FGR). Here, we intend to investigate the significance of Chromosomal Microarray Analysis (CMA) in the prenatal diagnosis of definite FGR.

method182 pregnant women with FGR participated in our study, undergoing CMA to identify chromosomal abnormalities. The cohort was categorized into isolated FGR, FGR with ultrasound soft marker abnormalities, and FGR associated with structural malformations.

resultsThe detection rates of PCNVs in FGR with structural anomalies are significantly higher than those in the isolated FGR group and the FGR group with abnormal ultrasound soft markers (19.0% vs. 2.1%, 19% vs. 1.5%; χ²=9.33, p = 0.005). Compared to FGR with a single system malformation, the diagnostic rate of chromosomal variations in FGR with multiple system malformations is markedly increased (60% vs. 6.3%; p = 0.028). Advanced maternal age, early-onset FGR, and severe FGR do not appear to influence the diagnostic rate of chromosomal variations (p > 0.05).

conclusionChromosomal variations pose a significant risk in FGR with structural abnormalities, associated with the number of organ systems involved. Notably, advanced maternal age, early-onset FGR, and severe FGR do not affect the diagnostic rate of chromosomal variations in FGR.
