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

Magnetic resonance imaging is being increasingly used to diagnose and follow up a variety of medical conditions in pregnancy, both for maternal and fetal indications. However, limited data regarding its safe use in pregnancy may be a source of anxiety and avoidance for both patients and their healthcare providers. In this review, we critically discuss the main safety concerns of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in pregnancy including energy deposition, acoustic noise, and use of contrast agents, supported by data from animal and human studies. Use of maternal sedatives and concerns related to occupational exposure in pregnant personnel are also addressed. Exposure to gadolinium-based contrast agents and sedation for MRI during pregnancy should be avoided whenever feasible.
