Isolated Single Umbilical Artery and Histomorphometric Changes of Umbilical Blood Vessels in Intrauterine Growth Retarded Foetus in Comparison to Normal Neonates.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Three vessels-one vein and two arteries-allow the fetus and placenta to exchange waste, oxygen, and nutrients in the umbilical cord. Single umbilical artery (SUA), a congenital abnormality with one umbilical artery, can occur in some pregnancies. Materials and Methods: The current observational study was conducted at the Parul Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Waghodia, Vadodara, Gujarat. Ten percent formalin was used to preserve 5 cm segment of the placental cord after delivery. Paraffin-embedded slices were produced, and H and E staining was performed on a 3 μm segment. Results: This study compared 125 normal and 125 intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) infant umbilical cords. IUGR neonates had significantly thinner umbilical vessel walls than normal newborns, although their cross-sectional area was similar between sexes. Conclusion: The thickness of umbilical cord blood arteries affects IUGR, according to this study. These large vessel wall thickness changes may indicate IUGR or associated disorders.
