Risk factors for pre-eclampsia among pregnant women with migraine: a retrospective single-centre cohort study.
Article in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 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
backgroundMigraine share overlapped pathophysiological features with specific adverse pregnancy outcomes such as pre-eclampsia and related pregnancy complications. The study was undertaken to determine and explore risk factors associated with pre-eclampsia among pregnant women with migraine especially in the context of Turkey.
methodStudy employed a retrospective single-centre cohort design, collecting past data on various demographics and physiological parameters, with a focus on migraine and pre-eclampsia. Database recorded from Mersin City Hospital, in the Perinatology and Neurology clinics, Turkey and comprised total 1348 observations. All the participants had migraine however, the control and cases were bifurcated based on the prevalence of pre-eclampsia. Statistical techniques, including frequency, inferential analysis such as independent sample t-test and multivariate binary logistic regression techniques were performed through Statistical Package for Social Sciences Version 20.
resultsThe study found significant effects of migraine, hypertension, hypothyroidism, placental anatomy, and cigarette use due to obtained t-statistics of p-value < 0.008, p < 0.000, p < 0.000, p < 0.000 and p < 0.002 respectively. Based on mean differences for hypertension, heart disease, diabetes and hypothyroidism, Placental anomaly, Cigarette Use, Asthma/allergy, Fibromyalgia and Pre-pregnancy depression in control group and case group had no symptoms for aforementioned states. Nevertheless, p-value < 0.05 for all the above factors suggests there was a significant mean difference between the control and case groups.
conclusionThe study found that migraine is significantly and positively associated with pre-eclampsia. There are various underlying factors that are interlinked to migraine and consequently enhanced pregnancy complications like pre-eclampsia. Results suggests, migraine, hypertension, hypothyroidism, placental anatomy and cigarette were strong predictors of pregnancy-related complications.
