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

objectivesThis study was conducted to assess pregnancy outcomes in women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Oman.

methodsA retrospective cohort study of 149 pregnancies in 98 women with SLE was conducted over 10 years to evaluate the impact of clinical and laboratory parameters in predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes.

resultsMean maternal age was 30.6 ± 5 years ranging from 20-44 years, and the mean disease duration was 10 ± 5 years, ranging from 2-27 years. The most common maternal manifestations were joint pain in 36 (24.2%), lupus nephritis (LN) in 18 (12.08%), preeclampsia in 11 (7.4%), eclampsia in three (2%) and lupus flare in one pregnancy. The live birth rate was 139 (93.3%) with a mean gestational age of 36 ± 2 weeks ranging from 26-40 weeks. In total, 55 (39.6%) were preterm deliveries, six (4%) pregnancies ended in miscarriage, and four (2.7%) resulted in intrauterine fetal death. Intrauterine growth restriction was observed in 49 babies (35%). A significant association was found between hypertension (HTN) and miscarriage (

conclusionDespite potential complications, most pregnancies complicated by SLE in Oman result in good outcomes. Adverse pregnancy outcomes, however, may still occur in women with SLE. In women with SLE, pregnancy planning, careful antenatal monitoring and efficient SLE treatment need to be undertaken for successful pregnancy outcomes.
