Acute care visits and rehospitalization in women and infants after cesarean birth.
Trial report in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This study, conducted as a randomized clinical trial, focuses on acute care visits and rehospitalizations of mothers whose infants were delivered by cesarean section (n = 122) and infants (n = 123) for 8 weeks after hospital discharge. There were three maternal rehospitalizations. Maternal acute care visits were for wound infections or complications (27 of 34); 21 occurred in the first 4 weeks. Seventy-five percent of infant rehospitalizations were for infection or possible infection; 22 of 31 infant acute care visits occurred in first 4 weeks for bilirubin checks and infant care problems, and 21 of 25 visits in weeks 5 to 8 were for infections. Discharge teaching and home care in first 4 weeks after discharge and issues related to infant infections in the second 4-week period may reduce the need for rehospitalizations and acute care visits in both mothers who had cesarean section and their infants.
