Pregnancy and related complications in achondroplasia: a scoping review.
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
Very few articles have investigated pregnancy in women with achondroplasia. A scoping review methodology was used to record and summarize the existing research evidence. The review process was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Original studies and case series mentioning achondroplasia with a minimum of 5 pregnancies were included. A total of 1527 articles were screened by title and abstract. Twenty-one full-text articles were reviewed for eligibility criteria. Seven studies were included. The reference details, study characteristics, topics of interest, and main findings are presented. The combination of short stature and a narrow pelvis led to a difficult antenatal and intrapartum period. Over the past decades, the number of publications on achondroplasia has increased overall, but pregnancy-related articles are still lacking. Multicentre studies should be initiated following methodological reference standards to strengthen the reliability and generalizability of the findings and to increase their relevance for implementation in clinical practice.
