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
The rising global rate of cesarean section (CS) has prompted renewed focus on vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) as a safe and effective alternative to repeat CS in properly selected women. The FIGO good practice recommendations provide evidence-based recommendations to guide VBAC care. Success rates for VBAC range from 60% to 80%, with the highest likelihood in women with prior vaginal birth, non-recurrent CS indications, interbirth intervals ≥18 months, BMI <30 kg/m
