Neuroanesthesia and pregnancy: Uncharted waters.
Review in Medical journal, Armed Forces India, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
An incidence of 30-40 deaths per triennium in pregnant patients is reported because of brain pathology. Over the last two decades, the obstetric cause of mortality in the pregnant patient has declined, but the trend is rising for non-obstetric cause of mortality. Pregnancy is associated with a host of anatomical and physiological alterations that complicate the conduct of anesthesia. The brain is one of the vital organs of the body, and physiological changes during pregnancy alter the anesthesia management if associated with brain pathology. Malignant brain tumors and trauma remain a leading cause of indirect maternal mortality. Review of literature revealed paucity of evidence-based neuroanesthesia management for such patients. Navigating these uncharted waters remains a challenging exercise. With the lack of guidelines, the management is based largely on few case reports or case series.
