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

backgroundManagement and outcomes in women with placenta accreta spectrum grade 3 are rarely reported from population-based studies. The objective of this study is to describe profiles, management, and outcomes, of women with placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) grade 3 from three multiperiod studies.

methodsThis analysis used data from three multiperiod population-based cohort studies from the United Kingdom (UK) (May 2010-April 2011), France (November 2013-October 2015), and Italy (September 2014-August 2016) to compare the management and outcomes of women with grade 3 PAS. The main outcome measures were postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) ≥ 3000 mL, blood transfusion ≥ 4 units, and other severe maternal complications (death, damage to bowel or urinary tract).

resultsThis study included 39 women with PAS grade 3 in the UK, 51 in France, and 34 in Italy, a total of 124 women. PAS was suspected before birth in 59% of the UK cases, 88% in France, and 82% in Italy (P < .01). Conservative management was attempted only in the UK (38%) and in France (61%). PPH ≥ 3000 mL occurred in 54% of the UK women, 25% in France, and 12% in Italy (P < .01); 67% in the UK, 47% in France, and 41% in Italy received blood transfusion ≥ 4 units (P = .06). The final (immediate and secondary) hysterectomy rate differed significantly between the three countries: 69% in the UK, 57% in France, 100% in Italy (P < .01).

conclusionMaternal outcomes in women with grade 3 PAS varied between the three periods and countries, alongside the evolution in prenatal screening and peri-operative management.
