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

The risk of multiple adverse pregnancy outcomes and perinatal outcomes among pregnant women with sickle cell trait (SCT) is not known. Our objective was to compare differences in adverse outcomes, specifically pregnancy-related hypertensive disease (PRHD), pyelonephritis/urinary tract infection (UTI), and low birth weight (LBW), between pregnant women with SCT and healthy controls. This was a retrospective cohort study of women who delivered between 2015 and 2020. We included all women with SCT, that is, hemoglobin electrophoresis AS. Women with SCT were matched in a 1:2 to women without SCT, controlling for age, gravidity, and parity. Our primary outcomes were PRHD, pyelonephritis/UTI, and LBW baby. Multivariable logistic regression modeling examined the associations between patients' characteristics and the primary outcomes.There were 162 women with SCT, and 324 healthy control women were enrolled. Bivariate analysis revealed that women with SCT had a higher proportion of PRHD (38.9% vs 34.9%;
