Temporal Changes in Fetal and Maternal Parameters in Early-Onset Fetal Growth Restriction: A Multicenter, Retrospective Cohort Study.

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
OBJECTIVE(S): Timing of birth is complex in early-onset fetal growth restriction (FGR) and the literature is limited regarding the exact sequence of changes in antenatal parameters. This study aimed to examine this sequence in a large early-onset FGR cohort.
designMulticenter, retrospective cohort study.
settingSix tertiary care hospitals in the Netherlands. POPULATION: A post hoc analysis of the OPtimal TIming of antenatal COrticosteroids in early-onset fetal growth REstriction (OPTICORE) study was performed.
methodsRepeated measures of antenatal parameters were assessed routinely from diagnosis to birth. Mixed-effects models were used to determine the probability of abnormality (binary) and the trend (Z-score, continuous) over time for each parameter (< 32 and ≥ 32 weeks).
main outcome measuresThe time sequence of changes in fetal and maternal health parameters from diagnosis to birth in early-onset FGR pregnancies.
resultsA total of 1453 patients were included, of whom 1025 patients gave birth < 32 weeks and 428 ≥ 32 weeks, with median gestational ages of 29 + 3 weeks (IQR 27 + 6, 30 + 5) and 34 + 4 weeks (IQR 33 + 0, 37 + 0), respectively. The most apparent changes in fetal parameters in the last days preceding birth comprised: absent/reversed end-diastolic velocity of the umbilical artery and cardiotocography abnormalities. Regarding maternal parameters, an increased probability of antihypertensive agent(s) use was seen shortly preceding birth < 32 weeks. CONCLUSION(S): This large cohort of early-onset FGR pregnancies provides a time sequence of fetal and maternal health parameters from diagnosis to birth, which could inform clinical management.
