First Trimester Neurosonogram-Our Experience.
Article in Current health sciences journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Central nervous system (CNS) malformations represent 1% of all births. For this reason, efforts are being made to increase detection of such anomalies prenatally. Consequently, a detailed assessment of the fetal nervous system in the first trimester of pregnancy is no longer a utopia as this kind of evaluation can detect severe malformation such as acrania, neural tube defects, holoprosencephaly or can draw attention regarding to anomalies currently detected in the second trimester due to certain markers of diagnosis. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study included 1376 pregnant women with gestational ages between 11 and 14 weeks, who were referred to our unit for sonographic evaluation. We analyzed in all patients the fetal brain in axial and mid-sagittal views, assessing markers like intracranial translucency, brainstem/brainstem-occipital bone (BS/BSOB) ratio, choroid plexus (CP/HA) ratio, the octopus sign in order to detect as many anomalies in the first trimester of pregnancy.
resultsWe detected 6 CNS anomalies during our search. All markers assessed were abnormal in all pathological cases.
conclusionA detailed assessment of the fetal brain is recommended at 11-14 weeks because the earlier the diagnosis is confirmed, the lower the chances of obstetrical, psychological complications to supervene.
