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

backgroundThe hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet count (HELLP) syndrome is a serious complication in pregnancy occurring in 0.5-0.9% of all pregnancies and in 10-20% of cases with severe pre-eclampsia. Previous studies described HELLP syndrome without hemolysis without any further details.

objectivesThis report represents the criteria for the diagnosis of Abdelazim and AbuFaza elevated liver enzymes, low platelet count (ELLP) syndrome as a variant of HELLP syndrome. CASE REPORTS: A 39-year-old woman, pregnant 32 weeks' gestation, previous five cesarean sections, admitted with severe pre-eclampsia (blood pressure 160/110 mmHg, proteinuria +3, 700 mg proteins/24 h urine, and protein/creatinine ratio ≥0.9 in spot urine sample). Laboratory investigation showed elevated liver enzymes, low platelet (PLT) count, and no evidence of hemolysis. A 31-year-old woman, pregnant 33

conclusionAbdelazim and AbuFaza ELLP syndrome is variant of HELLP syndrome without hemolysis in women with severe pre-eclampsia. Abdelazim and AbuFaza ELLP syndrome diagnostic criteria are as follows: (1) Elevated liver enzymes; (2) Low PLT count; and (3) Absence of hemolysis (normal total and unconjugated bilirubin, absence of schizocytes, and polychromatic red cells in peripheral blood smear, and normal reticulocyte count).
