Predictive accuracy of the first trimester Doppler scan: a meta-study.
Synthesis in Wiener medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
aimTo determine sensitivity and cut-off indices of the uterine artery Doppler (UAD) in prediction of preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction (FGR).
methodsSeventy-six studies published in 1995-2014, present 298,329 prenatal Doppler screenings performed in nullipara in the first and early second trimesters of singleton pregnancies. The sample is stratified into four groups based on the Doppler sensitivity and specificity indices pertaining to the major clinical endpoints of the cohort.
resultsThe FGR diagnostic specificity (r = 0.728) and bilateral notching index (r = 0.803) correlations indicate that the UAD accuracy depends on the placental bed and the screening mode.
conclusionsPredictive sensitivity of the UAD increases after 16 weeks + 3 days (115 days) of gestation. The best predictive parameter of preeclampsia and FGR is the placental side uterine artery resistance index which confers to the highest means when the placenta is on the midline (OR 0.9).
