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

Background: This study aims to investigate the association between exposure to air pollutants during pregnancy (until placental accreta) in twin pregnancies and the risk of abnormal placental positioning and development. Methods: This retrospective study included 3,670 pregnant women with twin pregnancies, classified into three groups: no placenta previa or accreta (3,017 cases), placenta previa (119 cases), and placenta accreta without previa (534 cases). Air pollution data (PM2.5, PM10, SO2, NO2, CO, and O3) were collected from 12 monitoring stations in Chongqing. Exposure estimates were calculated using geocoding based on hospital locations and the nearest stations. Multivariate logistic regression and trend regression analyses, adjusted for confounders, assessed the impact of these pollutants on placenta previa and placenta accreta risk during the 3 months preconception, first trimester, and second trimester. Stratified analyses based on maternal characteristics and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis were performed. A dual-pollutant model was used to validate the results. Results: Results showed that none of the six pollutants were significantly associated with placenta previa in either single-pollutant or dual-pollutant models. In the subtypes of placenta previa, NO Conclusion: The mechanisms by which air pollutants affect placenta previa and placenta accreta in twin pregnancies are notably different.
