1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objectives: Preeclampsia (PE) is a major contributor to maternal and foetal morbidity and mortality. Early identification of women at risk is crucial for timely intervention, yet a cost-effective and reliable screening tool remains unavailable. This study aimed to evaluate the role of platelet-related parameters-platelet count (PC), mean platelet volume (MPV), plateletcrit (PCT), platelet distribution width (PDW), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR)-in predicting the development and severity of PE. Methods: This prospective observational cohort study was conducted at AIIMS Patna between January and November 2021. Pregnant women enrolled before 14 weeks of gestation were followed throughout pregnancy. Platelet parameters were measured at three gestational intervals: 10 to 14 weeks, 24 to 28 weeks, and 32 to 36 weeks. Data were analysed using SPSS v22, employing chi-square tests, Results: Among 728 participants, 9.3% developed PE. Risk was significantly higher in primigravida women ( Conclusion: Platelet indices, particularly PCT and NLR, demonstrated a significant association with PE in early pregnancy, while MPV was significantly elevated in late pregnancy. These findings suggest potential utility in risk stratification, though further studies are required to validate their predictive value before routine use in early screening.
