Ultrasonography Sliding Sign as a Predictor for Intraabdominal Adhesions in Repeated Cesarean Deliveries: Retrospective Cross Sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This retrospective cohort study included 350 individuals who underwent cesarean section. Data from 198 participants who met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. The region below ROC curves for the sliding sign was 0.717 (95% CI: 0.645–0.789). The sensitivity was 58.9%, specificity was 84.6%, positive predictive value (PPV) was 81.7%, negative ...
