Dietary Habits and Medications to Control Hypertension Among Women of Child-Bearing Age in the United States from 2001 to 2016.

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
backgroundHypertension (HTN) in pregnancy is a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality in the United States. Although the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet is recommended for all adults with HTN, rates of DASH adherence and antihypertensive medication use in women of child-bearing age are unknown. Our objectives were to determine DASH adherence and antihypertensive medication use in women of child-bearing age.
methodsIn the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys from 2001 to 2016, we estimated DASH adherence among women of child-bearing age (20-50 years). We derived a DASH score (0-9) based on 9 nutrients, with DASH adherence defined as DASH score ≥4.5. HTN was defined by blood pressure (BP) ≥130/80 mm Hg or antihypertensive medication use. DASH scores were compared across BP categories and antihypertensive medication use was categorized.
resultsOf the 7,782 women, the mean age (SE) was 32.8 (0.2) years, 21.4% were non-Hispanic Black, and 20.3% had HTN. The mean DASH score was 2.11 (0.06) for women with self-reported HTN and 2.40 (0.03) for women with normal BP (P < 0.001). DASH adherence was prevalent in 6.5% of women with self-reported HTN compared with 10.1% of women with normal BP (P < 0.05). Self-reported HTN is predominantly managed with medications (84.8%), while DASH adherence has not improved in these women from 2001 to 2016. Moreover, 39.5% of US women of child-bearing age are taking medications contraindicated in pregnancy.
conclusionsGiven the benefits of optimized BP during pregnancy, this study highlights the critical need to improve DASH adherence and guide prescribing among women of child-bearing age.
