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 reviewHypertension affects approximately 10% of pregnancies and may persist in the postpartum period. Furthermore, de novo hypertension may present after delivery, but its exact prevalence is not verified. Both types of hypertension expose the mother to eventually severe complications like eclampsia, stroke, pulmonary edema, and HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet) syndrome. RECENT

findingsUntil today, there are limited data regarding the risk factors, pathogenesis, and pathophysiology of postpartum hypertensive disorders. However, there is certain evidence that preeclampsia may in large part be responsible. Women who experienced preeclampsia during pregnancy, although considered cured after delivery and elimination of the placenta, continue to present endothelial and renal dysfunction in the postpartum period. The brain and kidneys are particularly sensitive to this pathological vascular condition, and severe complications may result from their involvement. Large randomized trials are needed to give us the evidence that will allow a timely diagnosis and treatment. Until then, medical providers should increase their knowledge regarding hypertension after delivery because many times there is an underestimation of the complications that can ensue after a misdiagnosed or undertreated postpartum hypertension.
