Obstetrical and neonatal complications in hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia: A retrospective study.
Article in BJOG : an international journal of obstetrics and gynaecology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveTo retrospectively describe a large series of pregnancies in women with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia followed in our reference centre, plus neonatal outcomes, to better understand the risks of complications and to improve their prevention.
designA retrospective descriptive study conducted through a phone questionnaire.
settingReference centre for hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia in Lyon, France. POPULATION: Women meeting the following criteria: (1) alive and aged ≥18 years; (2) with a definite clinical and/or genetic diagnosis of hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia; and (3) with at least one full-term pregnancy.
main outcome measuresMaternal and perinatal outcomes of pregnancies in women with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia.
resultsFive hundred and sixty-two pregnancies were reported in 207 women with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia. A total of 271 complications (48.2%) were registered. Of these, 149 (55%) non-specific complications, 110 (40.6%) non-severe specific complications and 12 (4.4%) severe specific complications were registered. There were four cases of haemoptysis and two cases of transient ischaemic attack related to pulmonary arteriovenous malformations. Four patients had severe decompensated dyspnoea, related to pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in three cases and to pulmonary arteriovenous malformations associated with severe hepatic arteriovenous malformations in one case. Hepatobiliary necrosis occurred in one case. Epidural or spinal anaesthesia was performed in 139 of 452 deliveries (31%), without complications. There were 12 reports of congenital anomalies in 461 live births (3%).
conclusionsMost pregnancies in hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia women are uneventful; complications are rare but can be severe. Women thus need to be educated about screening and possible pregnancy-related risks before becoming pregnant.
