Portal hypertension in pregnancy - Concealed perils.
Article in Obstetric medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Pregnancy in women with portal hypertension is high risk due to the danger of variceal haemorrhage, which complicates 15-34% of cases. Variceal bleeding in pregnancy to women with non-cirrhotic portal hypertension is associated with increased risk of abortion (29%) and perinatal death (33%). Pregnancy in women with cirrhosis while less common due to hypogonadism, is associated with additional potential complications of hepatic decompensation and encephalopathy (10%), hepatorenal syndrome, ascites and bacterial peritonitis. Pregnancy in women with cirrhotic portal hypertension is associated with maternal death in 1.6%, and fetal loss in 10-66%. We present a case of non-cirrhotic portal hypertension in pregnancy, discussing two other potential critical complications of portal hypertension in pregnancy, splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) and pulmonary hypertension.
