Ethical issues in perinatal communication.
Review in European journal of pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Advancements in neonatal critical care continue, enhancing perinatal communication is essential to address the bioethical challenges faced. In perinatal care, various life-limiting or life-threatening conditions that address ethical issues can arise, both during the prenatal and postnatal phases. The diagnosis, prognosis, and potential treatment of these conditions significantly influence the lives of both the unborn child and the newborn, thereby directly impacting parental choices and experiences. This review arises from the necessity to highlight the importance of developing a structured framework concerning the critical components of perinatal care, with a specific focus on the pivotal role of communication. A standardized approach is recommended for counseling at the time of diagnosis of critical fetal conditions, to care for the couple and to support their decision making.
conclusionsIn perinatal critical clinical scenarios, it is imperative that healthcare providers communicate to parents using effective communication strategies, with standardized frameworks. Moreover, integrating perinatal palliative care into the treatment pathway for fetuses with limited life expectancy is essential, within referral centers. WHAT IS KNOWN: • In perinatal care, different life-limiting or life-threatening conditions that address ethical issues can arise, both during the prenatal and postnatal phases. • The diagnosis, prognosis, and potential treatment of critical fetal and postnatal conditions significantly affect the lives of the child and parents. WHAT IS NEW: • Communication has a pivotal role concerning the critical components of perinatal care. • A standardized approach is recommended for counseling at the time of diagnosis of critical fetal conditions, to care for the couple and to support their decision making.
