Could first- and second-trimester biochemical markers for Down syndrome have a role in predicting intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy?
Article in Archives of medical science : AMS, 2018. 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
introductionThe aim of this study is to compare first- and second-trimester Down syndrome biochemical screening markers in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) and normal pregnancies. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis observational case-control study was conducted at Health Sciences University Zeynep Kamil Maternity and Children's Health Training and Research Hospital and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Erciyes University Medical Faculty during 2016-2017. The study included 165 patients, and consisted of 62 women who had been diagnosed with ICP (the ICP-diagnosed group) and 103 healthy pregnant women (the control group). First-trimester free β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG), pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and second-trimester total β-hCG, estriol (E3), α-fetoprotein (AFP), and inhibin A levels were compared between the two groups.
resultsThe mean patient age was 28.67 ±5.96 years, with no significant difference between the groups (
conclusionsThe decrease in PAPP-A MoM value indicates an increase in the risk of developing ICP, while changes in other markers were not sufficient to predict ICP.
