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

Pregnancy is a well-established trigger for a first episode or relapse of immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP). Other outcomes of subsequent pregnancy after a diagnosis of iTTP are less well described. We conducted this retrospective cohort study to evaluate maternal and fetal outcomes of pregnancy in women with prior iTTP from the Johns Hopkins Thrombotic Microangiopathy Cohort. Of 168 women in the cohort, 102 were of reproductive age at diagnosis. Fourteen pregnancies (in 9 women) that occurred after the initial iTTP episode were included in the analysis. iTTP relapse occurred in 9 (64%) pregnancies. Out of the 9 instances of relapse, 5 relapses occurred in 2 women. Seven pregnancies (50%) ended in fetal death or miscarriage in the setting of iTTP relapse and three were electively terminated due to fear of relapse. Four pregnancies (50% of the 8 that progressed beyond 20 weeks) were complicated by preeclampsia or HELLP syndrome, which is over ten-fold higher than that of the general population. No maternal deaths occurred. Only 4 pregnancies resulted in live births, of which, 2 were pre-term. Pregnancy in women with prior iTTP is associated with a substantial risk of iTTP relapse and fetal loss. Preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome is also more common than that in the general population. ADAMTS13 monitoring and preemptive therapy may improve pregnancy outcomes, which needs to be evaluated prospectively.
