1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Maternal tachycardia is the most frequently occurring cardiac complication during pregnancy. Often administration of drugs is required as a treatment. The drug of choice is intravenously administered adenosine because it is considered safe, though there are limited studies regarding safety for the foetus with the use of adenosine. Case summary: We report a conversion of maternal atrio-ventricular (AV) nodal reentry tachycardia during pregnancy with the use of intravenous adenosine whilst continuous electrophysiological foetal monitoring. Four seconds after the maternal conversion, the foetal tracing suggests the presence of a ventricular extrasystole or a transient AV block. Discussion: This case report illustrates that the administration of adenosine intravenously during pregnancy could have an effect on the foetal conduction system. Therefore, further investigation to assess the electrophysiological effect of adenosine on the foetal electrocardiogram seems required.
