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

objectiveTo study the feasibility and reproducibility of two ultrasound (US) related post-processing methods for first-trimester fetal cardiac function assessment by ventricle volume measurements.

methodFirst-trimester transvaginal Spatio-Temporal Image Correlation (STIC) US datasets acquired between 11

results25 STIC US datasets were selected. The mean GA was 13

conclusionFCVV measurements performed in STIC US datasets using VR are feasible and reproducible, specifically when compared to VOCAL.
