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

backgroundWe hypothesized that receiving cervical length screening (CLS) would be associated with a lower incidence of preterm birth (PTB) among patients with a history of PTB.

methodsPatients who delivered live and stillborn infants at Baylor Scott & White Medical Center - Temple from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2023 and had a medical history of PTB were included in the analysis. We performed a bivariate analysis between patients who did and did not have PTB. We then performed a multivariate logistic regression to determine which variables were independently associated with PTB.

resultsThere were 2756 births during the study period, and 185 patients met inclusion criteria. Tricare versus commercial insurance (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 3.39; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.17-9.80; DISCUSSION: Tricare versus commercial insurance and receiving CLS were associated with a 239% and 182% increase, respectively, in the chance of PTB. It is possible that unmeasured variables among patients who had CLS were associated with PTB.
