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

Objective: To analyse the effectiveness of kinesiotherapy in the labour of pregnant women induced by misoprostol. Methods: This is a clinical trial carried out with pregnant women pharmacologically induced by misoprostol (25mcg, vaginally). They were randomised into two groups: Intervention Group (IG) of induced pregnant women who underwent kinesiotherapy during the active phase of labour; and Control Group (CG), of induced pregnant women who did not do physical therapy during the active phase of labour. Among the variables studied were vaginal delivery, induction time, duration of the labour, and the number of misoprostol doses. Data were analysed by the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The IG had more vaginal deliveries (p=0.016). The other variables analysed showed no difference between groups. Results: Kinesiotherapy during the active phase of labour in women induced by misoprostol was effective for performing more vaginal deliveries despite not showing any difference in the other outcomes studied. Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that after the application of kinesiotherapy, during the active phase of labour in pregnant women induced by misoprostol, the number of vaginal deliveries increases.
