Outcomes of emergency cervical cerclage after amnioreduction in twin pregnancies with a fully dilated cervix and amniotic membrane prolapse.

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
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of emergency cervical cerclage (EmC) in twin pregnancies with a fully dilated cervix and amniotic membrane prolapse. Material and Methods: This retrospective study examined records from December 2015 to December 2022 and included 20 twin pregnancies. The patients were divided into two groups, the EmC group (EmC group) and the no EmC (control) group, and pregnancy outcomes were compared. Results: EmC was performed after amnioreduction in 11 twin pregnancies. Nine patients who refused EmC were followed up with expectant management. The mean gestational age at first examination was similar between the EmC (21.36±1.62 weeks) and control group (21.00±3.16 weeks, p=0.372). The median (range) volume of removed amniotic fluid was 151.82 (120-420) mL. Cases in the EmC group gained a significantly longer delay until delivery (47.72±28.14 days) compared to controls (2.33±0.5 days, p<0.001). All of the women in the control group gave birth within three days following admission to hospital. The mean gestational age at birth was significantly higher in the EmC group (28.18±4.53 weeks) than in the control group (21.57±3.53 weeks, p<0.001). Thirteen (59.09%) infants survived in the EmC group while only two infants (22.22%) of one patient survived in the control group (p<0.001). Conclusion: EmC increases the survival rate of infants by prolonging the gestational age at delivery in twin pregnancies. Clinicians and patients should be encouraged regarding the use of EmC in twin pregnancies with a fully dilated cervix and prolapsed amniotic membranes.
