Assessment of fibrinogen albumin ratio in patients with pregnancy-related cerebral venous thrombosis.
Article in Acta neurologica Belgica, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
INTRODUCTION AND
objectiveCerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a cerebrovascular disease observed more commonly in women of childbearing age. There is currently no biomarker used to predict the risk of CVT during the follow-up of pregnant/postpartum patients. In this context, the objective of this study is to investigate the importance of fibrinogen and albumin levels and fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) values, which predispose to thromboembolism, in pregnant/postpartum patients. MATERIAL AND
methodThe study sample consisted of 19 pregnant/postpartum patients with a diagnosis of CVT, 20 pregnant/postpartum patients without CVT. Albumin and fibrinogen levels and FAR values were compared between these two groups.
resultsFibrinogen level was significantly higher in pregnant/postpartum CVT patients compared to pregnant/postpartum patients without CVT (p = 0.010). On the other hand, albumin level was significantly lower in pregnant/postpartum CVT patients compared to the other group (p = 0.010). Lastly, FAR level was significantly higher in pregnant/postpartum CVT patients compared to the other group (p = 0.011). There was no correlation between FAR values and modified Rankin score.
conclusionThe study findings indicated that high fibrinogen and low albumin levels and high FAR values are associated with an increased risk of CVT in pregnant/postpartum patients.
