Factors Associated with Postpartum Glucose Testing Following Gestational Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in Oman medical journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesGlucose testing at six weeks after delivery has been recommended by the World Health Organization as the earliest period to detect abnormal glucose tolerance among women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, the rate of postpartum glucose testing in many parts of the world is low, between 30-60%. Therefore, we sought to determine the proportion of women with GDM who underwent glucose testing at six weeks postpartum and the factors associated with the compliance to the test.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study between January and April 2017 in 13 governmental primary health care clinics in the southern part of Peninsular Malaysia. All eligible postpartum women registered from January to June 2016 who had GDM during their most recent pregnancy were included. Descriptive and multiple logistic regression analyses were performed.
resultsOut of 341 women, 35.8% attended primary health care clinics for glucose testing six weeks postpartum. The factors significantly associated with the compliance to postpartum glucose testing were GDM diagnosis in previous pregnancy (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 1.76; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.04-2.99;
conclusionsThe proportion of women with GDM who underwent postpartum glucose testing remained low. Hence, strategies should be reinforced to encourage all women with GDM to undergo postpartum glucose testing.
