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

Preeclampsia is defined as new-onset hypertension with proteinuria after 20 wk gestation and is hypothesized to be due to shallow trophoblast invasion in the spiral arteries thus resulting in progressive placental ischemia as the fetus grows. Many animal models have been developed that mimic changes in maternal circulation or immune function associated with preeclampsia. The model of reduced uterine perfusion pressure in pregnant rats closely mimics the hypertension, immune system abnormalities, systemic and renal vasoconstriction, and oxidative stress in the mother, and intrauterine growth restriction found in the offspring. The model has been successfully used in many species; however, rat and primate are the most consistent in comparison of characteristics with human preeclampsia. The model suffers, however, from lack of the ability to study the mechanisms responsible for abnormal placentation that ultimately leads to placental ischemia. Despite this limitation, the model is excellent for studying the consequences of reduced uterine blood flow as it mimics many of the salient features of preeclampsia during the last weeks of gestation in humans. This review discusses these features.
