Pregnancy and delivery in women with Parkinson's disease: A case series.
Article in Journal of Parkinson's disease, 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
BackgroundParkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive degenerative disease affecting people at any age; however, it is generally more prevalent in older age groups. Younger individuals, especially women, are facing significant challenges that pertain to pregnancy. Unfortunately, the available information is limited and supported mostly by anecdotical experience.ObjectiveTo gain insight into the interaction between early-onset PD and pregnancy.MethodsWe report on a case series of women, diagnosed with PD, that underwent pregnancy to explore the disease catachrestic, natural history, and different challenges associated with these unique group of people.ResultsWe identified a total of 9 participants who met our inclusion criteria, who had gone through a total of 12 pregnancies after onset of PD motor symptoms. In 10 out of 12 pregnancies, participants did not use any PD medication; throughout 1 pregnancy, a participant used pramipexole and throughout 1 pregnancy, a participant used levodopa/carbidopa.ConclusionsOur study supports the importance of further multicentric studies on pregnant women with PD to prospectively collect data on complications, birth outcomes, lactation, and PD severity.
