Hematological predictors of preeclampsia among pregnant women attending ante-natal clinic at Arba Minch General Hospital, South Ethiopia: A comparative cross-sectional study.

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
Background: Preeclampsia is a kind of pregnancy-related hypertension that affects 5.47 % of pregnancies in Ethiopia and 18.25 % of pregnant women who visit Arba Minch public health facilities for antenatal care. This study sought to identify hematological preeclampsia markers in pregnant women who received prenatal care at Arba Minch General Hospital. Methodology: An institution-based comparative cross-sectional study was done from July 22 to October 30, 2021 at Arba Minch General Hospital. A total of 136 pregnant women were included in the study (46 with preeclampsia and 90 without preeclampsia). Epidata version 4.4. was used to enter data, and SPSS version 25.0 and Stata version17 were used for analysis. An independent sample Results: A total of 136 pregnant women were studied. The complete blood count analysis showed that there were means differences in Red Cell Distribution (RDW) (p < 0.036), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (p < 0.016) and relative lymphocyte count (Lymp%) (p < 0.047). The ROC analysis of the AUC for RDW, NLR and Lymp% resulted in 0.607, 0.609, 0.600 respectively. Conclusion: RDW, NLR and Lymphocyte count could be potential candidate tools for the diagnosis and screening of preeclampsia. However, the robustness of the markers should be tested with prospective studies assessing changes present in each trimester.
