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

backgroundHypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) pose significant risks to maternal and fetal health, with substantial mortality and morbidity rates globally, particularly in developing countries. Pre-eclampsia (PE) accounts for a notable portion of maternal morbidity and mortality, with varied prevalence across regions within countries like India. Despite advancements, disparities in healthcare access persist, influencing outcomes. PE not only affects maternal health during pregnancy but also predisposes women to long-term cardiovascular complications, emphasizing the need for early screening and preventive measures.

methodsThis prospective randomized double-blind clinical trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of 75 mg versus 150 mg aspirin for preventing preterm pre-eclampsia in high-risk women. Screen-positive women aged 18-45 years with singleton pregnancies between 12 and 16 weeks of gestational age will be enrolled. They will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either 75 mg or 150 mg of aspirin nightly until 37 weeks of pregnancy or earlier if preterm pre-eclampsia develops. Feto-maternal outcomes, including preterm pre-eclampsia incidence and neonatal and maternal complications, will be assessed. The sample size calculation based on expected proportions of preterm pre-eclampsia in both groups indicates a total of 370 participants (185 per group) accounting for 20% attrition. DISCUSSION: This prospective randomized double-blind clinical trial aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of two doses of aspirin (75 mg vs 150 mg) in preventing preterm pre-eclampsia in high-risk women. The potential implications of this study are significant, including the optimization of aspirin prophylaxis, the development of evidence-based guidelines, and comprehensive assessment of maternal and fetal outcomes. In conclusion, the results of this study have the potential to significantly impact clinical practice by enhancing maternal and perinatal health outcomes and contributing to evidence-based obstetric care.
