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 investigate the risk factors for severe postpartum hemorrhage (SPPH) in vaginal delivery and explore targeted prediction and prevention strategies. Methods: A retrospective cohort study of singleton pregnancies with vaginal deliveries after 28 weeks of gestation from January 1, 2021, to December 31, 2024, in the Peking Union Medical College Hospital was conducted. Women with multiple pregnancies, those with gestational age less than 28 weeks, and those giving birth through cesarean section were excluded. The primary outcome was SPPH, defined as blood loss of 1000 mL or more within 24 h of childbirth, or the presence of signs or symptoms of low blood volume requiring a transfusion of four or more units of red blood cells. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify potential risk factors for SPPH. Results: A total of 6784 women were included in the study, with a SPPH rate of 1.31%. Low-lying placenta or placenta previa (adjusted odds ratio (a Conclusion: Placenta-related factors (placenta accreta spectrum, low-lying placenta, or placenta previa), thrombocytopenia, episiotomy, and precipitate labor were identified as factors potentially associated with SPPH in vaginal delivery. These findings should be interpreted with caution, given the limited number of events, and further validation through larger, multicenter studies is warranted.
