Using mHealth in postpartum women with pre-eclampsia: Lessons learned from a qualitative study.
Article in International journal of gynaecology and obstetrics: the official organ of the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo explore perceptions and attitudes of postpartum women with pre-eclampsia towards remote monitoring (mHealth) and communication with the call center.
methodsA non-randomized cohort study was conducted in postpartum hypertensive women, recruited from a tertiary hospital between October 2015 and February 2016. Participants were categorized into users (using mHealth) and non-users (not using mHealth) to monitor vital signs at home over a 2-week period after discharge. Non-users were informed about functionality of mHealth. Both groups participated in a 30-minute phone interview at the end of the study. Directed content analysis of interview transcripts was conducted.
resultsIn total, 21 users and 16 non-users participated in the interview. Both groups perceived that mHealth helped manage their condition. However, non-users were concerned about the challenge of incorporating mHealth into their routine, whereas users mentioned that they liked using mHealth on a daily basis. They also stated that communication with nurses in the call center was helpful. Barriers identified by users included size of the blood pressure cuffs, size of the equipment set, wireless connection, and stress associated with mHealth monitoring. Users stated that they would have preferred using mHealth during pregnancy.
conclusionThe findings provide useful insights to inform a successful remote monitoring program among perinatal and postpartum women.
