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

backgroundFirst trimester prediction of fetal growth restriction (FGR) remain suboptimal. We aimed to search for new circulating angiogenic biomarkers for improvement.

methodsThis case-control study compared 73 singleton pregnancies with early or late-onset FGR based on Delphi consensus and 73 matched normal controls. Their maternal serum samples stored during 11-13 weeks were retrieved for measurement of 36 angiogenic biomarkers by MILLIPLEX

resultsIn the early-onset FGR group, log

conclusionsThree new first trimester biomarkers, sNRP-1, sPECAM-1 and PDGF-AB/BB are predictive of subsequent development of early-onset FGR.
