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

Background: Managing psychiatric emergencies during pregnancy is often challenging, as the safety of both the mother and the unborn fetus needs to be considered. This study aimed to examine the nature of psychiatric emergencies in pregnancy, their management, and clinical outcomes in women presenting to a psychiatry emergency room (ER). Methods: Charts of perinatal women consulting psychiatry ER between January 2016 and June 2021 were reviewed for the nature of the psychiatric emergency, pregnancy details, psychiatric symptoms, sociodemographic information, medical comorbidities, clinical diagnosis, and care plan. Results: Among 286 perinatal women who attended psychiatry ER, 57 (19.9%) patients were pregnant. Over half ( Conclusion: One-fifth of women in the perinatal period presenting to the ER were pregnant. Agitation and aggression were the most common reasons. Parenteral medications were commonly used, and more than a fifth required inpatient care, emphasizing the seriousness of risk.
