Efficacy of combined medication of nifedipine and magnesium sulfate on gestational hypertension and the effect on PAPP-A, VEGF, NO, Hcy and vWF.
Article in Saudi journal of biological sciences, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveTo investigate the effects of combined medication of nifedipine and magnesium sulfate on the blood pressure, pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), nitric oxide (NO), homocysteine (Hcy) and von Willebrand factor (vWF) in gestational hypertension patients.
methodsA total of 220 gestational hypertension patients were enrolled as the subjects, and divided into two groups randomly, i.e. the observation group and the control group. In observation group, patients took combined medication of nifedipine and magnesium sulfate, while those in the control group only took magnesium sulfate for treatment. Clinical efficacy, and the changes in blood pressure, PAPP-A, VEGF, NO, Hcy and vWF before and after treatment were compared between two groups.
resultsIn the observation group and the control group, total effectiveness rates were 92.7% and 70.9%, respectively (
conclusionCombined medication of magnesium sulfate and nifedipine can decrease the levels of PAPP-A, VEGF, NO, Hcy and vWF in serum as well as the blood pressure of patients with gestational hypertension, with a reduction in incidence rate of complications and improvement in efficacy.
