Maternal Near Miss and Death Among Women with Eclampsia Using WHO Near Miss Criteria.
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: The aim of the study was to estimate the prevalence of maternal near miss (MNM) and maternal death and to identify the factors associated with severe maternal outcome in women with eclampsia according to the World Health Organization (WHO) maternal near-miss criteria. Method: A cross-sectional study was carried out over a period of 12 months incorporating pregnant women diagnosed as eclampsia during antepartum and postpartum period. The definition of maternal near miss was applied according to the WHO near-miss criteria. Data were collected in a case record form specially designed for the study and analyzed using statistical software. Result: A total of 229 women with eclampsia included in the study over a period of 1 year. Among 229 women with eclampsia, 75 (32.75%) women diagnosed as maternal near miss (MNM), and 6 (2.62%) women had maternal death. Causes of near miss were neurological dysfunction (30.66%), respiratory dysfunction (24%), hematological dysfunction (18.67%), cardiological dysfunction (16%), hepatic dysfunction (10.67%) and uterine dysfunction (5.33%). Maternal near-miss ratio is 4.91 per 1000 live births, and severe maternal outcome ratio is 5.30 per 1000 live birth. Maternal near-miss mortality ratio (MNM:1MD) is 12.5:1, and mortality index is 7.40. Conclusion: The study shows that there is scope to improve antenatal care and utilization of health facilities. Early diagnosis, good perinatal supervision and appropriate treatment can ameliorate many cases.
