The fetal neurologist: Strategies to improve training, practice, and clinical care.
Review in Developmental medicine and child neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Fetal neurology addresses counselling parents on the clinical significance of brain anomalies encountered in their fetus, including disruptive lesions (i.e. stroke, periventricular haemorrhagic infarction, and infection), and genetically based cortical (i.e. hemimegalencephaly, lissencephaly, cobblestone malformation, polymicrogyria, heterotopia) or posterior fossa anomalies (i.e. cerebellar agenesis and hypoplasia, rhombencephalosynapsis, Dandy-Walker syndrome, mega cisterna magna, Blake's pouch cyst). Unlike paediatric neurologists, fetal neurologists cannot examine the infant directly so they diagnose and prognosticate using imaging and other diagnostic studies. The integration of fetal neurologists into fetal multidisciplinary teams is essential for providing expert counselling and cohesive care. This review emphasizes the need for specialized training, multidisciplinary collaboration, and the development of comprehensive service designs to ensure consistent and effective care for families. Additionally, it emphasizes the critical role of fetal neurologists in identifying brain anomalies early and providing thorough counselling to parents, helping them to understand the prognosis, potential interventions, and long-term outcomes for their unborn child.
