Persistent postpartum hypertension 3 months post-delivery among women with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in Tanzania: A multicenter cohort study.
Observational study in Pregnancy hypertension, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Postpartum care of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) often extends only 6 weeks after delivery in low-income countries. This multicenter observational cohort study was conducted to determine 3-month postpartum outcomes of HDP in Tanzania. Of 309 consecutive women admitted to 3 public hospitals, five (1.7 %) died within 3 months. Of the remaining 304, 292 (94.5 %) returned for 3-month follow-up visit and 41.1 % (95 % CI: 35.6 %-46.9 %) had persistent postpartum hypertension. The strongest independent predictor of hypertension persistence was reduced eGFR at delivery (aOR = 2.1[1.01,4.4]). Postpartum follow-up should routinely be extended to 3 months in all women with HDP to diagnose hypertension and prevent cardiovascular disease.
