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

Preeclampsia/eclampsia significantly increases the risk of future hypertension. Several factors may be involved in this process. The purpose of this study was to identify them in Cameroonians. We conduct a cross-sectional study including women aged 18 to 45 years, who deliver between December 2011 and 2016, and were diagnosed and followed up for preeclampsia/eclampsia in two major obstetrical and gynecologic units in Yaoundé (Cameroon). Those with persistent high-blood pressure after 6 months were classified as persistent hypertension (PH). Associated factors were investigated using multivariate analysis with logistic regression and presented with an adjusted odds ratio (aOR) and the 95% confidence interval. 92 participants were included, with 30 (32.6%) with PH. The independent factors associated with PH were as follows: maternal age during preeclampsia above 30 years (aOR = 6.30 [1.1; 35.4], p = .03), at least five deliveries prior preeclampsia (aOR = 1.50 [2; 6.6], p = .008), and family history of diabetes (aOR = 14.8 [2.6; 85.7], p = .003). About one in three women with preeclampsia/eclampsia will have PH. The clinician needs to pay more attention to the potential risk factors identified above. More appropriate strategies need to address the burden of this condition in the context of low resources.
