Pharmacological treatment of bipolar disorder in pregnancy: An update on safety considerations.
Review in Indian journal of pharmacology. 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
Pregnancy in women with bipolar disorder (BD) can be considered a high-risk pregnancy in view of several clinical and pharmacotherapeutic considerations. Pharmacological treatment during pregnancy requires a careful weighing of psychotropic drug exposure against the risk of BD relapse. An untreated bipolar illness can negatively affect the health of mother as well as unborn child in the event of a relapse. Availability of well balanced, latest information on safety of prophylactic drugs for BD is crucial for making informed decisions. The review provides an evidence-based update (2015-2021) on the drug safety considerations involved in providing care for women with BD who are either pregnant or planning to conceive in near future. Literature review based on systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and data available from studies based on large-scale cohorts and birth registries has been synthesized and presented along with clinically relevant recommendations.
