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

backgroundThe etiology and pathophysiology of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy remains enigmatic, and till date, no test can accurately predict it. Early screening may allow vigilant antenatal surveillance, timely delivery and thus substantially reduce maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Our study aims to evaluate the predictive value of uterine artery mean pulsatility index (PI) at 11-14 weeks and find a reference value for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

methodsA prospective study of 240 antenatal women using non-probability simple random sampling was carried out in a tertiary care center. Mean uterine artery PI was obtained at 11-14 weeks of gestation. Pregnancies were followed till delivery and 7 days postpartum. The major end point was development of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Maternal and neonatal outcomes were also assessed.

resultsThe predictability of uterine artery mean pulsatility index (PI) at 11-14 weeks for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy was significantly high with an odds ratio of 174.45 (95% CI 65.31-549.13;

conclusionUterine artery mean PI at 11-14 weeks of gestation is a cost-effective predictive test for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, and the recommended reference value for Indian population of is 2.28.
