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

Pre-eclampsia (PE) continues to be a leading cause of maternal and fetal mortality and morbidity. While substantial progress has been made in understanding the pathomechanisms of PE, the pathophysiology of the disease is still not fully understood. While the "two-stage model" of the development of PE is the most widely accepted theory, stating that the placenta is the main source of the disease, there are some other pathophysiological models of PE. Among these other theories, the one considering heart dysfunction as serving as the primary cause of PE seems to be gaining increasing prominence. In this review, we aim to elucidate these two divergent concepts concerning the development of PE. Despite some differences in their proposed pathomechanisms, both theories share vital pathophysiological elements in common. A central and critical component in both models is impaired placental perfusion, which appears to be a crucial phenomenon in PE. A comprehensive understanding of the different pathomechanisms involved in PE may be helpful in clinical practice, prompting a more individual approach to care of patients with PE.
