Impact of Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy on Stillbirth and Other Perinatal Outcomes: A Multi-Center Retrospective Study.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 aim of the study is to assess the impact of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy on stillbirths and other perinatal outcomes among women in Karachi, Pakistan. METHODOLOGY: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted at two tertiary care hospitals, Aga Khan Hospital (AKU) and Liaquat National Hospital (LNH) in Karachi, Pakistan. The primary outcome variable of this study was stillbirth. Other outcomes assessed in this study included preterm birth, low birth weight, and early neonatal death.
resultsData of a total of 840 women were included in this study; 280 (33.33%) women had hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and 560 (66.67%) were normotensive. Among women who had hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) of having a stillbirth was two times more than that for normotensive women (AOR=2.62, 95% CI=1.46-4.40), four times for low birth weight (AOR=4.23, 95% CI=2.88-6.20), five times for early neonatal death (AOR=5.03, 95% CI=2.40-10.50) and six times for pre-term birth (AOR=5.16, 95% CI=3.42-7.79).
conclusionThe current study found that incidence of stillbirth, low birth weight, pre-term birth, and neonatal mortality is higher in mothers with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy than normotensive mothers.
