Disparities in Location of Service and Management of Early Pregnancy Loss: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in BJOG : an international journal of obstetrics and gynaecology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo examine differences in the location of service and management for patients receiving early pregnancy loss (EPL) care based on racial/ethnic identity.
designRetrospective cohort study.
settingA single university-affiliated urban tertiary care centre in the United States. POPULATION: A cohort of 796 received care for EPL at a single university-affiliated urban tertiary care centre from July 1, 2021, through June 30, 2023.
methodsDescriptive statistics for demographic factors were generated, reporting frequencies and percentages; continuous variables were expressed as a mean with standard deviation; and chi-squared tests were performed. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the demographics of this patient population and the frequency of location of service and management type. Multivariate logistic regression models assessed the relationship between the location of services (ED and GYN triage vs. other), management type (expectant vs. active management) and patient race and ethnicity. Statistics are reported as adjusted odds ratio (aOR) and 95% confidence interval (CI).
main outcome measuresLocation of service, management type.
resultsThere were differences in care location and management based on race/ethnicity. Black and Hispanic/Latinx patients were more likely to receive care in the emergency department or gynaecology triage compared to their White counterparts. Black patients were also more likely to receive expectant management and office procedural management compared to their White counterparts. Receiving treatment in the emergency department or gynaecology triage was associated with expectant management.
conclusionsRacial disparities exist in both location of service and management type for EPL.
