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

backgroundPreeclampsia affects between 2% and 5% of pregnant people in North America. First-trimester preeclampsia screening based on the Fetal Medicine Foundation risk calculation algorithm combined with treatment of high-risk patients with aspirin effectively reduces the incidence of preterm preeclampsia more than the currently used risk factor-based screening. However, the impact of such screening on patient satisfaction and maternal anxiety is unknown.

objectiveThis study aimed to assess the impact of first-trimester prediction and prevention of preterm preeclampsia on patient satisfaction and anxiety. STUDY

designConsenting pregnant patients participating in a local first-trimester (11-13+6 weeks) preterm preeclampsia screening and prevention implementation study

resultsBetween June 2021 and December 2021, surveys were emailed to 765 participants. The response rate was 47.80% (358/765). Overall, 93% of participants reported high levels of satisfaction with preterm preeclampsia screening (70%-100%), and 98% stated that they would recommend the screening to all pregnant patients. With respect to levels of satisfaction with the program's support in reducing feelings of worry and anxiety, 87.9% of the total sample reported high satisfaction (70%-100%). The level of clinically significant symptoms of anxiety did not differ significantly between low- and high-risk groups (8% vs 10.8%, respectively).

conclusionOverall, first-trimester preeclampsia screening was associated with high patient satisfaction and did not lead to differences in patient anxiety between those with high- and low-risk screen results.
