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

purposeAntenatal ventriculomegaly (VM), a prevalent fetal central nervous system (CNS) abnormality, ranges from isolated VM to VM with additional CNS abnormalities. This study aimed to analyze postnatal diagnoses and clinical outcomes of patients with antenatal VM to identify key prenatal factors. MATERIALS AND

methodsNeonates born at ≥35 weeks of gestation between 2010 and 2022 with antenatal VM were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were categorized as VM with other CNS abnormalities (group A, n=95), isolated VM (group B, n=40), and resolved VM (group C, n=80). CNS abnormalities identified postnatally but not prenatally were classified as group A2 (n=38). Imaging findings, clinical features, and 2-year neurodevelopmental outcomes were compared.

resultsGroup A showed higher rates of bilateral VM (78.9% vs. 50.0% vs. 27.5%,

conclusionLarger initial ventricle size in antenatal VM was associated with poorer neurodevelopmental outcomes. Normal antenatal findings can obscure postnatal CNS abnormalities. Advanced imaging and postnatal evaluation are essential for timely diagnosis and perinatal counseling and management.
