Effect of Physical Activity during Pregnancy on the Risk of Hypertension Disorders and Gestational Diabetes: Evidence Generated by New RCTs and Systematic Reviews.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are the most common medical complications in pregnancy. Physical exercise is considered to be safe and beneficial during pregnancy. Moreover, pregnancy could be considered as an opportunity for healthcare providers to promote positive lifestyle behavior and optimize the well-being of pregnant women. Since there are few up-to-date reviews evaluating the role of exercise and the risks of developing obstetrical complications, we performed a review to investigate the effects of physical activity and exercise during pregnancy compared to a control group, focusing on the risk of development of HDP and GDM. We searched Medline and Web of Science, including only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and systematic reviews. This review supports a beneficial effect of exercise and provides evidence that it significantly decreases the risk of HDP and GDM.
