Diagnostic Value of Clinical Pelvimetry and Sonopelvimetry in Determining Mode of Delivery in Nulliparous Women.

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
Background: Normal morphological features of the maternal pelvis are important prerequisites for vaginal delivery. Clinical pelvimetry and sonopelvimetry are inexpensive methods of assessing pelvic capacity. This study aims to determine the diagnostic accuracy of clinical pelvimetry and sonopelvimetry in predicting the mode of delivery in nulliparous women. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 210 nulliparous women who came for delivery were assessed regarding their clinical and trans-abdominal ultrasonographic pelvimetry characteristics. Parameters including sacral promontory, diagonal conjugate diameter, curvature of the sacrum, interspinous diameter, side walls, sacrosciatic notch, and sub-pubic arch, prominence of coccyx, and intertubberous diameter were evaluated through clinical pelvimetry. Sonopelvimetry was performed to determine diagonal conjugate diameter. The measurements were compared between those who delivered through the vaginal route versus cesarean section (C/S). The receiver operating curve was depicted to determine the value of pelvimetry to prognosticate delivery mode. Results: Sacral promontory, diagonal conjugate diameter, curvature of the sacrum, interspinous diameter, side walls, sacrosciatic notch, sub-pubic arch, prominence of coccyx, and inter tuberous diameter were insignificantly different between those who delivered through the vaginal route versus C/S ( Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, neither clinical pelvimetric parameters nor trans-abdominal ultrasonography could appropriately prognosticate delivery appropriateness through the vaginal route.
