Management of anti-seizure medications in lactating women with epilepsy.
Review in Frontiers in neurology, 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
Epilepsy is a common neurological disease. At present, there are about 70 million epilepsy patients in the world, half of them are women, and 30-40% of women with epilepsy are of childbearing potential. Patients with epilepsy who are of childbearing potential face more challenges, such as seizures caused by hormonal fluctuations and the risk of adverse effects on the mother and baby from taking anti-seizure medications (ASMs). Breast milk is one of the best gifts that a mother can give her baby, and breastfeeding can bring more benefits to the baby. Compared with healthy people, people with epilepsy have more concerns about breastfeeding because they are worried that ASMs in their milk will affect the growth and development of the baby, and they are always faced with the dilemma of whether to breastfeed after childbirth. Regarding, whether women with epilepsy can breastfeed while taking ASMs, and whether breastfeeding will adversely affect the baby is still an important topic of concern for patients and doctors. This article reviews the existing research on breastfeeding-related issues in women with epilepsy to guide clinical practice, and improve the breastfeeding compliance of women with epilepsy.
