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

opinion statementCardiovascular disease is an important cause of morbidity and mortality during pregnancy and the postpartum period. During pregnancy, the cardiovascular system undergoes extensive hemodynamic, hormonal, and microstructural changes which may exacerbate a preexisting underlying cardiovascular condition or predispose to cardiovascular complications not typically seen in young healthy women. Such conditions include spontaneous coronary artery dissection, atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, and peripartum cardiomyopathy. When evaluating this patient population, the diagnostic strategy should be tailored to specifically assess this distinct disease spectrum. The choice of imaging techniques must also consider potential risks to both the mother and child; a unique challenge of diagnostic imaging during pregnancy. The risk of radiation from radiography, computed tomography, and nuclear medicine imaging; iodinated and gadolinium-based contrast media for computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging respectively; and heat deposition from sonography are of special importance during pregnancy. A thorough understanding of pregnancy-specific cardiovascular complications and the capabilities and risks of available diagnostic imaging modalities is crucial to appropriately manage the pregnant patient.
