A Scoping Review of the Prevalence of Preeclampsia and its Contributions to Maternal and Perinatal Mortality in Nigeria.
Article in Annals of African medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
abstractPreeclampsia is a major cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. This scoping review aims to map the existing literature on the prevalence of preeclampsia in Nigeria over the past 5 years and examine its contributions to maternal and perinatal mortality. The study utilized a scoping approach to map out the current situation and offer insights into potential interventions and future research directions. To include recent evidence, the search focused on articles published from January 2020 to January 2025. The quality of the studies included was assessed using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme checklists for quantitative and qualitative studies. The review identified several sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with the prevalence and contributions to maternal mortality in Nigeria. The findings of this scoping study provide valuable insights into the current state of knowledge on the burden and the need for further research and policy interventions to address this critical public health issue. By addressing this burden, Nigeria can improve maternal health outcomes and contribute to achieving global health targets, including the Sustainable Development Goals.
