Lutsiv and Nancy Dzaja and L. Duley}, journal={International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics}, year={2012}, volume={118} }
Evidence from RCTs shows that magnesium sulfate reduces the risk of seizures and mortality for women with pre‐eclampsia/eclampsia. However, it has been argued that outcomes within trials may not reflect real‐world outcomes with the same intervention.
