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

Preeclampsia is one of the most feared complications of pregnancy and puerperium and represents a serious threat to mother and child. In addition, a history of preeclampsia increases the risk of future cardiovascular events. New diagnostic and therapeutic approaches are needed. New therapeutic options are currently being discussed, one of which is the administration of hydroxychloroquine. It is an antimalarial drug which is also used to treat rheumatological disease and its use in pregnancy is considered safe. A reduced incidence of preeclampsia in patients with selected rheumatological disorders after administration of hydroxychloroquine has already been shown; however, the case numbers are very low. Neither the full pathogenesis of preeclampsia nor the exact modes of action of hydroxychloroquine have been completely elucidated, but there are several common features which make hydroxychloroquine a promising option for the prevention and treatment of preeclampsia. Further research, especially prospective, randomized controlled trials, is needed to prove its efficacy. This review discusses the pathogenesis of preeclampsia and gives an overview of new options for its prevention and treatment, including the administration of hydroxychloroquine in pregnancy.
