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
objectiveThe route of termination of pregnancy in eclampsia is not clearly established. This study aims to compare the fetomaternal outcome between planned vaginal delivery and planned cesarean section in women with eclampsia after 34 weeks of gestation.
methodsThis prospective observational study was conducted in the department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Midnapore Medical College, West Bengal, India. 182 women with eclampsia carrying 34 weeks or more gestation were allocated to either cesarean(CD) or vaginal delivery (VD) group. The primary measure of outcome was severe maternal outcome. Secondary measures of outcome were perinatal mortality and morbidity.
resultsOf the 62 women allocated in vaginal delivery (VD) group, 60 women (32.97%) had vaginal delivery and 122 (67.03%) had undergone cesarean delivery (CD). Severe maternal outcome was more common in VD group in comparison with CD group (72.5% vs 27.5%,
conclusionThere is increasing trend of delivering the eclampsia mother at > 34 weeks of gestation by cesarean section instead of inducing labor and delivering vaginally. Cesarean section when chosen as method of delivery does not increase morbidity or mortality.
