Patient awareness of long-term cardiovascular and metabolic disease risks after hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in Japan.

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
aimGiven the increasing recognition of the importance of postpartum follow-up care for women with a history of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) to mitigate their future risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, here we aimed to evaluate the current status of postpartum follow-up care in Japan and explore the challenges to its implementation.
methodsA web-based survey was conducted using a smartphone application among postpartum women between March and May 2024 to assess their knowledge of HDP-related future risk and postpartum follow-up care.
resultsA total of 880 valid responses were obtained, 73 (8.3%) of which were from women with a history of HDP. Of them, 56.2% were aware of the heightened risk of cardiovascular disease and even fewer knew about the risks of metabolic syndrome (37.0%) and the preventive use of low-dose aspirin (12.3%); in fact, 31.5% reported receiving no information about their risk or preventive measures from healthcare providers. Furthermore, 43.8% did not consult specialists or attend regular checkups after their 1-month checkup. Among women with a history of HDP, those who received information and guidance were more likely to implement behavioral changes than those who did not.
conclusionsPatient awareness level of HDP-related risk was low and the information provided by their healthcare professionals was insufficient, indicating that postpartum follow-up care in Japan is not satisfactory. This study highlights the need for improved educational strategies and systematic follow-up protocols to ensure that women are adequately informed and supported in managing their long-term health risks.
