The effect of antenatal magnesium sulfate on left ventricular afterload and myocardial function measured using deformation and rotational mechanics imaging.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
objectiveAssess the effect of antenatal magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) on left ventricular function measured using deformation and rotational mechanics imaging. STUDY
designInfants who received MgSO4 were matched for gestation, birth weight and mode of delivery with controls. Echocardiography was carried out on days 1 and 2 to measure left ventricle longitudinal strain (LV LS), twist, untwist rate, ejection fraction (EF), and systemic vascular resistance (SVR).
resultsThirty-eight infants with a median gestation and birth weight of 27.1 weeks and 923 g were included. On day 1, the MgSO4 group (n=19) had a lower SVR and higher LV LS, EF, twist and untwist rate than the Control group (n=19) (all P<0.05). There were no differences between the groups on day 2.
conclusionAntenatal MgSO4 administration is associated with a lower SVR and higher myocardial function on day 1 in preterm infants <29 weeks gestation.
