[Psychopharmacotherapy during pregnancy : Which antipsychotics, tranquilizers and hypnotics are suitable?].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundWhen administering psychotropic drugs during pregnancy not only the potential teratogenic effects on the child must be addressed but also the fetotoxic implications for pregnancy and/or the peripartum phase as well as possible neurocognitive developmental disorders must be considered.
objectiveEvaluation of the risks and benefits of administering psychotropic drugs during pregnancy or for women who wish to become pregnant.
methodsThe literature has been reviewed with the purpose of providing information on psychotropic drugs which can safely be administered during pregnancy. The review considers antipsychotics as well as tranquilizers and hypnotics.
resultsData are available for a multitude of psychotropic drugs that allow a safe estimation on their suitability for use during pregnancy.
conclusionWhen treating mental illnesses during pregnancy the option of administering drugs must not principally be ruled out. What is required is an individual assessment of benefits and risks. The risk of an untreated mental illness versus the benefit of a suitable treatment, which may include the use of medication and the potential harm to the infant must be evaluated. If certain rules are observed and a suitable drug is selected the risk to the newborn child and/or mother during pregnancy can be minimized. During pregnancy, therapeutic drug monitoring is indicated and increases the safety for use of drugs and preventing harm to both mother and infant.
