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

Innovative technology, including wearable devices, remote patient monitoring, smartphone-based applications, and artificial intelligence, has often been suggested as a potential solution to addressing racial disparities and the maternal mortality crisis in the United States. The rapid pace of development of new technologies without deliberate efforts to ensure equity may in fact amplify rather than alleviate disparities. "Techquity" is a concept that encompasses "strategic development and deployment of technology to advance health equity" and has not been well explored as it relates to innovation in obstetrics. While advanced technology can be a powerful tool for achieving equity in healthcare, the irresponsible use of this technology can have devastating consequences for vulnerable communities. In this article, we highlight some of the more commonly used new technologies in obstetric care, examine potential pitfalls, discuss approaches to critical evaluations and proposed solutions, and explore the role of community partnerships in successfully advancing obstetric
