Contraception, fecundity, and pregnancy in women with epilepsy: an update on recent literature.
Review in Current opinion in neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purpose of reviewCaring for women with epilepsy requires specialized knowledge about potential teratogenicity of antiseizure medications, interactions with hormonal contraception, and pregnancy outcomes. RECENT
findingsThere has been an improvement in understanding the cognitive outcomes of infants exposed in utero in recent years. Folic acid supplementation helps mitigate the cognitive teratogenicity of antiseizure medications. Recent updates provide reassurance that seizure frequency tends to remain stable throughout pregnancy. There is conflicting evidence about the fecundity impact of epilepsy and antiseizure medications in women with epilepsy. SUMMARY: Recent research highlights the importance of early counseling about the risks and interactions of contraception, pregnancy, and antiseizure medications. More research is needed to understand fertility in women with epilepsy.
