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
backgroundMonochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) twin pregnancies are at risk of complications, particularly selective intrauterine growth restriction. The objective of this study was to evaluate the two-year neurologic outcomes of the eutrophic newborns from monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies who were complicated by selective intrauterine growth restriction, compared to newborns from uncomplicated MCDA pregnancies. Our hypothesis was to determine whether selective IUGR in these pregnancies was specifically associated with a risk of delayed psychomotor development at two years old.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective-prospective observational cohort study of children from pregnancies and deliveries which were monitored at Hospital Nord of Marseille between 2012 and 2021. The primary outcome measure was the comparison of the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) scores at the age of two years between the two groups. The secondary outcome measure was a composite score including the following: neonatal death, grade III or IV intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) at cerebral MRI or cranial ultrasound, periventricular leucomalacia (PVL) at brain MRI, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) of stages II or III.
resultsA total of 57 eutrophic children were included in the group from monochorionic twin pregnancies complicated by selective IUGR and 270 children in the group from MCDA twin pregnancies with no complications. The composite morbidity and mortality criterion, including neonatal death, grade III or IV IVH, the presence of PVL, BPD, and/or stage II or III NEC, was 11% in eutrophic newborns from the MCDA group with IUGR and 5% in the uncomplicated MCDA group, with no statistically significant difference (
conclusionsOur study did not show a statistically significant difference in the neurodevelopmental follow-up of eutrophic children from monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies with selective intrauterine growth restriction compared to newborns from the same pregnancies without complications.
