Prophylactic Aspirin Dose and Preeclampsia.
Article in JAMA network open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Importance: It is unclear whether a higher dose (150-160 mg) or a lower dose (75 mg) of aspirin should be used to prevent preeclampsia. Objectives: To compare the risk of preeclampsia and bleeding complications between women using 150 to 160 mg of aspirin and those using 75 mg of aspirin for preeclampsia prevention. Design, Setting, and Participants: This nationwide cohort study included 13 828 women giving birth at 22 weeks' gestation or later in Sweden between January 2017 and December 2020 who used low dose aspirin (75-160 mg) during pregnancy. Data were analyzed from October to November 2023. Exposure: The use of 150 to 160 mg or 75 mg of aspirin in pregnancy. Main Outcome and Measures: The main outcome was a preeclampsia diagnosis recorded in the maternal birth record at the time of hospital discharge. The main safety outcome was postpartum hemorrhage, defined as bleeding more than 1000 mL after delivery. Relative risks (RRs) and 95% CIs were estimated using a doubly robust inverse probability-weighted regression adjustment model controlling for background characteristics. Results: In the total cohort of 13 828 women, the mean (SD) age was 33.0 (5.5) years and 3003 women (21.7%) were nulliparous. Of the women, 4687 (33.9%) were prescribed 150 to 160 mg of aspirin, and 9141 (66.1%) were prescribed 75 mg of aspirin. A total of 10 635 women (76.9%) had at least 2 dispensed prescriptions of low-dose aspirin. Among women using 150 to 160 mg of aspirin, 443 (9.5%) developed preeclampsia compared with 812 (8.9%) of those using 75 mg of aspirin (adjusted RR [aRR], 1.07; 95% CI, 0.93-1.24). Additionally, the risk of postpartum hemorrhage between the groups was similar, with 326 women (6.9%) using 150 to 160 mg of aspirin experiencing a postpartum hemorrhage compared with 581 (6.4%) in the 75-mg group (aRR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.90-1.30). Conclusions and Relevance: In this cohort study of 13 828 women, no difference was found in preeclampsia incidence or bleeding complications between those using 150 to 160 mg of aspirin vs 75 mg of aspirin during pregnancy for preeclampsia prevention. These findings suggest that either dose may be a reasonable choice when using aspirin to prevent preeclampsia. However, large randomized trials investigating aspirin dose in pregnancy are still needed.
