Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis in pregnancy and puerperium.

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
Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is more common in women than in men, possibly due to gender-specific risk factors in young adults. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the clinical and radiological findings, other risk factors, and clinical course of CVST associated with pregnancy and puerperium differ from those of other CVST cases. We retrospectively reviewed patients diagnosed with CVST in our hospital between September 2007 and December 2019. The risk factors, clinical and radiological characteristics, and follow-up data for female patients with CVST were compared between cases associated with pregnancy and puerperium with those of other cases. A total of 50 female patients with CVST were included in the study. Twenty-four (48%) cases occurred during pregnancy and puerperium. The mean age of the pregnant or puerperal patients was lower than that of the other patients (p = 0.007). There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of clinical and neuroradiological findings or presence of any additional risk factors including hereditary thrombophilia. There was also no difference in terms of in-hospital mortality rates and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores at 6 months between the groups. The clinical presentation of CVST and the frequencies of the presence of other risk factors including genetic thrombophilia in pregnant and puerperal patients were similar to those of non-pregnant female patients. Screening for additional risk factors, especially genetic thrombophilia, should therefore not be neglected in CVST occurring during pregnancy and puerperium.
