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
background and purposeNeurological manifestations and neuroimaging abnormalities are common in patients with severe preeclampsia; however, the differences between these abnormal features occurring during early- and late-onset severe preeclampsia are unclear, and the factors associated with abnormal imaging changes in patients with neurological manifestations have not yet been fully elucidated. MATERIALS AND
methodsA retrospective study was conducted on 172 patients with severe preeclampsia from January 2017 to June 2018 in the Department of Neurology and Obstetrics, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University. The neurological manifestations, clinical parameters, laboratory, and neuroimaging findings were analyzed.
resultsEarly- and late-onset preeclampsia were diagnosed in 83 and 89 patients, respectively. Headache and dizziness were more common in patients with early-onset preeclampsia than in patients with late-onset preeclampsia (p = 0.013, p = 0.004, respectively). Serum uric acid, creatinine, and urea nitrogen were significantly elevated in the patients with early-onset preeclampsia (p < 0.001, p = 0.004, and p = 0.005, respectively). Neuroimaging was performed in 81 patients, of which 57 were positive. Findings indicating cerebral edema were the most common neuroimaging abnormality. Gestational weeks (p = 0.014), headache (p < 0.001), and blood urea nitrogen level (p = 0.027) may be associated with positive imaging findings. By multiple logistic regression, headache (OR = 10.2, 95% CI, 2.4-42.7; p = 0.002) proved to be an independent factor associated with neuroimaging abnormality.
conclusionsNeurological symptoms such as headache and dizziness were more common in patients with early-onset preeclampsia. Renal dysfunction may also associate with early-onset severe preeclampsia. Cerebral edema was the most common neuroimaging abnormality, and headache might be independently associated with abnormal imagine changes.
