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

backgroundOptimal delivery timing in the placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) remains a clinical challenge, particularly within the broad 34 to 35

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study including 145 PAS cases managed at a single tertiary center between May 2015 and December 2024. PAS cases diagnosed based on prenatal imaging, confirmed intraoperatively and by histopathology. A standardized algorithm incorporating cervical length and the number of antepartum bleeding episodes was used to determine delivery timing between 34 and 35

resultsA total of 145 PAS cases were included. Patients with a cervical length ≥ 25 mm and no bleeding delivered at a median of 35

conclusionsCervical length and antepartum bleeding history may assist in individualizing delivery timing for PAS within the recommended 34 to 35
