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

During pregnancy, marked changes in vasculature occur. The placenta is developed, and uteroplacental and fetoplacental circulations are established. These processes may be negatively affected by genetic anomalies, maternal environment (i.e., obesity or diabetes), and environmental conditions such as pollutants and hypoxia. Chronic hypoxia has detrimental effects on the vascular adaptations to pregnancy and fetal growth. The typical pregnancy-dependent rise in uterine blood flow by vascular remodeling and vasodilation of maternal uterine arteries is reduced, leading to increases in vascular tone. These maladaptations may lead to complications such as fetal growth restriction (FGR) and preeclampsia. In this review, the effect of hypoxia on uteroplacental and fetoplacental circulation and its impact on pregnancy outcomes in humans and animal models are discussed. Evidence is provided for several mechanisms that affect pregnancy through hypoxia-induced alterations. Future directions to fill gaps in knowledge and develop therapeutic strategies to prevent or alleviate hypoxia-related pregnancy complications, such as FGR and preeclampsia, are suggested.
