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

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the knowledge of the board members of the Zhejiang Association Against Epilepsy (ZAAE) regarding pregnancy of women with epilepsy (WWE), as well as their clinical practice and obstacles in the management of WWE. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among the board members of the ZAAE using a questionnaire based on the management guidelines for WWE during pregnancy in China. We recorded the demographic characteristics of the surveyed practitioners, the coincidence rate of each question, clinical practice, and the barriers encountered in managing WWE. Results: This survey showed that the average knowledge score of the surveyed practitioners was 71.02%, and the knowledge score of neurologists was higher than that of neurosurgeons. Knowledge regarding the following three aspects was relatively poor: whether WWE is associated with an increased risk of cesarean section and preterm delivery, the preferred analgesic drugs for WWE during delivery, and the time of postpartum blood concentration monitoring. After multiple linear regression analysis, the score of neurologists was correlated to the number of pregnant WWE treated each year. In addition, the biggest difficulty in the management of WWE during pregnancy is the lack of patient education and doctors training on pregnant epilepsy management. Conclusion: Our study revealed the ZAAE board members' knowledge and management status of pregnant WWE. In addition, our study identified the biggest obstacle to the management of WWE during pregnancy, and emphasized the importance of training and practice of epilepsy knowledge during pregnancy for practitioners and the significance of interdisciplinary communication.
