Association of family history with incidence and gestational hypertension outcomes of preeclampsia.
Article in International Journal of Cardiology. Hypertension, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
backgroundGestational hypertension and preeclampsia are hypertensive disorders related to pregnancy that can cause maternal morbidity and fetal growth retardation. The association of these disorders with family history remains unclear.
objectivesTo examine the degree of family aggregation of preeclampsia and gestational hypertension in Taiwan.
methodsThe study was conducted using the data from the National Health Insurance Database of Taiwan. Delivery events in Taiwan from 1999 to 2013 were collected. Preeclampsia was identified based on the hospital diagnosis of index delivery. The family aggregation pattern of preeclampsia was assessed and analyzed using the relationship registered in the database with the patients.
resultsA total of 60,314 preeclampsia events were identified among 4,091,641 deliveries, accounting for 1.5% of the cohort. The incidence of preeclampsia increased with maternal age. A total of 768 preeclampsia events occurred in mothers who had a sororal history of preeclampsia (n = 20,704), accounting for 1.3% of all preeclampsia events (n = 60,314). Mothers who had a sororal history of preeclampsia had a relative risk (RR) of 2.6 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.41-2.80) for preeclampsia compared with mothers who did not have a sororal history of preeclampsia. The RR for gestational hypertension was 2.79 (95% CI: 2.36-3.3) in mothers with a positive sororal history of gestational hypertension.
conclusionsHaving a sororal history of preeclampsia was a strong risk factor for preeclampsia and gestational hypertension in mothers in Taiwan. The pattern of family aggregation was similar at all maternal ages.
