Postpartum Blood Pressure Variability and Heart Rate Variability in Preeclampsia.

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
backgroundPreeclampsia is associated with autonomic dysregulation during pregnancy; however, less is known about autonomic function in the first week postpartum after preeclampsia.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed data from a prospective cohort of women with and without preeclampsia. Continuous blood pressure and heart rate were measured with finger plethysmography within 7 days postpartum. Frequency-domain blood pressure and heart rate variability (HRV) were calculated using spectral analysis. Time-domain HRV was calculated as the root mean square of successive R-R interval differences. We compared results between those with and without preeclampsia, as well as between those with new-onset preeclampsia, chronic hypertension with superimposed preeclampsia, and normotensive participants.
resultsA total of 70 postpartum women were enrolled: 20 normotensive, 29 new-onset preeclampsia, and 21 superimposed preeclampsia. Both low- and high-frequency blood pressure variabilities were higher in those with preeclampsia compared with controls (
conclusionsPostpartum patients with preeclampsia with and without chronic hypertension had lower HRV compared with normotensive postpartum controls. Higher blood pressure variability was observed only in those with nonsuperimposed preeclampsia, suggesting that the autonomic profile of preeclampsia may differ in patients with chronic hypertension.
