Frequent Use of Premenopausal Progestin in Women With Prior Preeclampsia.
Article in The Journal of clinical endocrinology and metabolism, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
contextWomen with a history of preeclamptic pregnancy are predisposed to later occlusive vascular diseases.
objectiveWe compared the use of cyclic progestins or levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) for treatment of menstrual cycle abnormalities between premenopausal women with and without a prior preeclamptic pregnancy.
methodsRegister-based cohort study during 1994 to 2019 of oral progestin or LNG-IUD in Finnish women with (n = 31 688) and without (n = 91 726) prior preeclampsia in 1969 to 1993. Cyclic progestin or LNG-IUD use and its association with future use of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT).
resultsWomen with prior preeclampsia had used cyclic progestins more often (23.5% vs 9.1%; P < .001) and initiated the use at younger ages (41.8 years, SD 6.3 vs 45.9 years, 3.1; P < .001) than control women. Also, LNG-IUD was inserted more frequently (P < .001) in women with prior preeclampsia (9.3%) than in controls (4.7%). Cyclic progestin or LNG-IUD use was accompanied by significant 37% to 90% elevations in future MHT use.
conclusionIncreased use of cyclic progestins and LNG-IUD in premenopausal women with a history of preeclamptic pregnancy can be seen as indirect evidence of earlier onset of ovulatory dysfunction. This may contribute to the elevated risk of endometrial cancer in these women. Our findings may indicate an additional late sequela of preeclamptic pregnancy.
