Predictors of Cardiometabolic Health a Few Months Postpartum in Women Who Had Developed Gestational Diabetes.
Observational study in Nutrients, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundTo assess the incidence of dysglycaemia and metabolic syndrome and factors associated with them 5 months postpartum in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in their last pregnancy.
methodsWe conducted an observational prospective cohort study in 558 women with previous GDM who attended a 5-month postpartum follow-up clinic. Backward elimination was performed to select significant factors for the multivariable logistic regression model. Dysglycaemia (prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D)) and metabolic syndrome were used as outcomes in separate models.
resultsDysglycaemia was diagnosed in 202 (36.2%) women, including 174 (31.2%) with prediabetes and 28 (5.0%) with T2D. Women with dysglycaemia, compared with those with normoglycaemia, were more likely to be of black ethnicity (33.2 vs. 20.5%) and have severe GDM (31.7 vs. 16%), a higher postpartum BMI (29.5 vs. 27.6 kg/m
conclusionsAt 5 months postpartum, a high proportion of women who developed GDM showed evidence of dysglycaemia. Future studies should investigate interventions that could reduce the risk of short- and long-term consequences of suboptimal cardiometabolic health in such women.
