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

purpose of reviewThe incidence of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), especially preeclampsia has increased significantly over the last two decades. Patients with these disorders often report cerebral and visual symptoms, which are listed as potential diagnosis criteria for preeclampsia, if accompanied by new-onset hypertension. Recent studies indicate that cerebral complications in HDP patients are associated with a compromised blood-brain barrier (BBB). The purpose of this review is to highlight the recent literature focused on the BBB in HDP, identify gaps in knowledge, and discuss future directions in this research area. RECENT

findingsMajority of the studies addressing BBB changes in HDP are focused on preeclampsia. Recent studies show that hypertension induces increased association of perivascular macrophages/microglia to the cerebral vessels, increased circulating extracellular vesicles, and decreased autoregulation of cerebral blood flow. There is a critical need for more animal studies targeted to protecting the BBB and preventing cerebrovascular complications in the context of HDP. More clinical studies are needed that investigate both the short- and long-term interplay between each HDP subtype and BBB and cognitive function.
