The pattern and magnitude of "in vivo thrombin generation" differ in women with preeclampsia and in those with SGA fetuses without preeclampsia.

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
objectiveWe aimed to determine the differences in the pattern and magnitude of thrombin generation between patients with preeclampsia (PE) and those with a small-for-gestational-age (SGA) fetus.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included women in the following groups: (1) normal pregnancy (NP) (n = 49); (2) PE (n = 56); and (3) SGA (n = 28). Maternal plasma thrombin generation (TGA) was measured, calculating: (a) lag time (LT); (b) velocity index (VI); (c) peak thrombin concentration (PTC); (d) time-to-peak thrombin concentration (TPTC); and (e) endogenous thrombin potential (ETP).
results(1) The median TPTC, VI, and ETP differed among the groups (p = .001, p = .006, p < .0001); 2) the median ETP was higher in the PE than in the NP (p < .0001) and SGA (p = .02) groups; 3) patients with SGA had a shorter median TPTC and a higher median VI than the NP (p = .002, p = .012) and PE (p < .0001, p = .006) groups.
conclusions(1) Patients with PE had higher in vivo thrombin generation than women with NP and those with an SGA fetus; (2) the difference in TGA patterns between PE and SGA suggests that the latter group had faster TGA, while patients with PE had a longer reaction, generating more thrombin. This observation is important for the identification of a subset of patients who might benefit from low molecular-weight heparin.
