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
introductionPreeclampsia is one of the leading causes of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality in the world. Calcium supplementation has proven to prevent this disorder. It is therefore important to issue guidelines and recommendations on its use.
objectivesSynthesize the recommendations regarding preeclampsia developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) with a view to improving the quality of care and outcomes for the health of pregnant women and women of childbearing age in general, and address aspects of their implementation.
methodsThe guidelines prepared by WHO follow the GRADE method (Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation) for the preparation of guidelines in the WHO Manual for the Preparation of Directives. Two of the WHO guidelines were synthesized and a systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Lilacs, Health Systems Evidence, Epistemonikos, and gray literature for studies carried out in the Region of the Americas in order to identify barriers, facilitators, and implementation strategies, as well as to determine indicators.
resultsTwo recommendations related to preeclampsia and eclampsia and their complications were formulated for implementation before and during pregnancy. Implementation barriers and facilitators were identified and indicators were created for assessing adherence and outcomes.
conclusionThe formulated recommendations aim to provide guidance on how to prevent preeclampsia through the consumption of calcium and include suggestions for implementation in Latin America and the Caribbean.
