Extreme Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy With Fetal Ascites and Neonatal Meconium Peritonitis.
Article in Cureus, 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
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is a rare but potentially severe condition with significant maternal and fetal risks. A 28-year-old gravida 2 para 1 woman presented at 21 weeks' gestation with pruritus and jaundice and was diagnosed with severe ICP (bile acids 297 μmol/L). Despite ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) treatment, escalation with rifampicin and antihistamines was required. At 23 weeks, fetal ultrasound revealed massive ascites and features suggestive of meconium peritonitis (MP). Intensive maternal-fetal monitoring allowed pregnancy prolongation to 36 weeks, when cesarean delivery was performed. The neonate, initially stable, developed bowel obstruction on day 7 and underwent surgical resection with ileostomy, followed by gradual recovery. This case illustrates the potential for rare but severe fetal and neonatal complications in the setting of extreme ICP. Early recognition, multidisciplinary management, and individualized delivery planning are crucial for optimizing maternal and neonatal outcomes.
