Association between body mass index and chronic hypertension in patients with hypertension disorders of pregnancy one-year postpartum.
Article in Pregnancy hypertension, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesTo determine the association between body mass index (BMI) and chronic hypertension (CHTN) one-year postpartum following pregnancies complicated by hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). STUDY
designA retrospective cohort study of patients with HDP (gestational hypertension or preeclampsia) in a single Midwestern academic center from 2014 to 2018. The primary outcome was CHTN at one-year postpartum, defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 130 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 80 mmHg or taking antihypertensive medication at one-year postpartum. The primary exposure variable was BMI at one-year postpartum, categorized as underweight (<18.5 kg/m
resultsOut of 596 patients with HDP included in this analysis, 275 (46.1 %) had CHTN one-year postpartum. Mean one-year postpartum BMI was 27.9 ± 5.2 kg/m
conclusionsObesity at one-year postpartum following HDP was associated with a higher risk of CHTN compared with normal BMI. Weight is a modifiable risk factor that should be targeted in postpartum interventions to reduce cardiovascular disease following HDP.
