Protective effect of rooming-in on postpartum hemorrhage: A propensity score analysis.

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
objectiveThis study investigates the effect of rooming-in on postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and other adverse maternal postpartum outcomes.
methodsA retrospective study was performed on all healthy women with singleton term pregnancies at a tertiary medical center between 2013 and 2022. Women were categorized by choice of neonatal care: hospital nursery or rooming-in. Propensity score matching (2:1) was based on maternal age, body mass index, parity, prior cesarean deliveries, pregnancy length, epidural administration, perineal lacerations, and neonatal birthweight. Primary outcome was PPH or the need for postpartum blood transfusion. Secondary outcomes were postpartum fever, postpartum preeclampsia, duration of hospitalization, pain intensity, urinary retention, and breastfeeding.
resultsOf 74 279 women, 16 201 met the inclusion criteria; 15 459 were analyzed (10 306 nursery care, 5153 rooming-in). Rooming-in was associated with a lower incidence of PPH (1.71% vs. 2.43%, odds ratio [OR] 0.7, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.55-0.89, P = 0.004), postpartum blood transfusion (0.60% vs. 1.13%, OR 0.53, 95% CI 0.36-0.79, P = 0.001), postpartum hospitalization exceeding 48 h (82.42% vs. 86.81%, OR 0.71, 95% CI 0.65-0.78, P < 0.001) and 72 h (12.17% vs. 13.75%, OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.79-0.96, P = 0.006), and a higher rate of breastfeeding (92.66% vs. 85.79%, OR 3.35, 95% CI 2.83-3.97, P < 0.001).
conclusionsThe physiological benefits of rooming-in might optimize maternal health outcomes and reduce the use of postpartum health care.
