Pregnancy complicated by neurological and neurosurgical conditions - The evidence regarding mode of delivery.
Review in Obstetric medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Neurological and neurosurgical conditions complicating pregnancy may precipitate considerable concern regarding the risk of complications, and uncertainty regarding the preferred mode of delivery and anaesthesia. Caesarean section is known to be associated with significantly increased risk of adverse maternal outcomes compared with vaginal delivery in healthy pregnancy. Nevertheless, a common perception exists among the general population and some health professionals that caesarean section is safer for the mother and baby in high-risk pregnancies. This manuscript examines the literature regarding the risks and outcomes related to mode of delivery in pregnancy complicated by disorders of the central nervous system. With the exception of women with raised intracranial pressure, and some women with Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome, the available evidence suggests that the mode of delivery should be based upon obstetric indications.
