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

purpose of reviewTo evaluate recent developments in the management of hypertension in obese pregnant women. RECENT

findingsThe mainstay of management targets prevention of hypertension with preconception counselling, entering pregnancy with a lower BMI, limiting weight gain, and taking low-dose aspirin to prevent pre-eclampsia from before 16 weeks' gestation. There are conflicting results regarding the use of metformin in reducing hypertensive disease, but there is a high probability that it has a role to play. Clinical trials are in progress examining the use of statins in preventing pre-eclampsia, with promising results from pre-clinical trials. Home blood pressure monitoring may be helpful in diagnosing and monitoring the control of hypertension. The most protective interventions against hypertensive disease in obese pregnant women are entering pregnancy at a lower BMI, avoiding inter-pregnancy weight gain, and taking low-dose aspirin during pregnancy. Further research is needed around the use of metformin, statins, and home blood pressure monitoring.
