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

Postmortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMRI) after fetal or perinatal death is now being adopted more widely in clinical settings as a non-invasive alternative or complementary approach to conventional autopsy. However, indications and imaging protocols vary significantly between centers and require standardization. Emerging advanced imaging techniques such as ultra-high-field MRI are very promising in smaller fetuses. In this article, we outline the current indications for PMMRI across different clinical scenarios and review consensus PMMRI protocols, together with a preview of future imaging possibilities enabled by 7-T MRI technology. We hope these recommendations will facilitate the standardization and implementation of perinatal PMMRI in clinical practice.
