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

Cardiac arrest in pregnancy is a rare event and poses a great risk to the mother and the fetus. A perimortem cesarean delivery (PMCD) is indicated within four minutes of cardiac arrest if the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) has not been achieved. This is a case of a 24-year-old pregnant woman who had a cardiac arrest and underwent a PMCD within six minutes. ROSC was achieved after 40 minutes. The patient was discharged home after 53 days without any neurological sequelae. The twins had neonatal encephalopathy and required neonatal ICU admission and cooling. They were discharged on day 12. Early recognition of cardiac arrest and rapid initiation of maternal resuscitation can significantly improve maternal and fetal outcomes. All providers who work closely with pregnant patients should be aware of the latest 2020 American Heart Association guidelines for the management of cardiac arrest in pregnancy.
