Severe Maternal Morbidity in Pregnancies Complicated by Fetal Congenital Heart Disease.
Article in JACC. Advances, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Maternal risk factors for fetal congenital heart disease (CHD) may also be associated with delivery complications in the mother. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of and risk factors for severe maternal morbidity (SMM) and maternal hospital transfer in pregnancies complicated by fetal CHD. Methods: A population-based retrospective cohort study utilizing linked Ohio birth certificates and birth defect data for all live births from 2011 to 2015 was performed. The primary outcome was composite SMM. Secondary outcome was maternal hospital transfer prior to delivery. Pregnancies with isolated fetal CHD were compared to pregnancies with no fetal anomalies and isolated fetal cleft lip/palate (CLP). Results: A total of 682,929 mothers with live births were included. Of these, 5,844 (0.85%) mothers had fetal CHD, and 963 (0.14%) had fetal CLP. SMM in pregnancies with fetal CHD was higher than that in those with no anomalies (3.6% vs 1.9%, Conclusions: Pregnancies with isolated fetal CHD have increased risk of SMM and maternal hospital transfer after adjusting for known risk factors. This may inform delivery planning for mothers with fetal CHD. Understanding the biological mechanisms may provide insight into other adverse perinatal outcomes in this population.
