Exposure to medication for neurological disease in pregnancy - time to consider the long-term implications?
Review in EClinicalMedicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A range of long-term neurological conditions may be diagnosed in young adulthood. These conditions are generally not curable, and most people need to take ongoing treatment for symptom control and/or disease modification. When chronic diseases are diagnosed before people have completed their families, there is a need to balance the potential benefits of treatment for the mother against potential risk(s) to the fetus from exposure to medications during pregnancy. Whilst available data regarding short-term fetal outcomes following treatment exposures during pregnancy is rapidly increasing, information regarding longer-term outcomes is more limited. The association of fetal exposure to valproate with serious long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes has highlighted the importance of capturing and evaluating long-term data. In this review we examine available evidence around the long-term effects of treatments used for the most common long-term neurological conditions diagnosed in early adulthood, namely epilepsy, migraine and neuroinflammatory disorders. We draw from existing literature across a range of diseases and discuss strategies to improve future knowledge.
