Exercise during pregnancy (frequency, intensity, type, time, volume): birth outcomes in women at risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
Article in AJOG global reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Background: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) hold negative health implications for mothers and offspring. While the beneficial influence of prenatal exercise on reducing HDP risk has been previously shown, there is a lack of specific information on the effect on birth outcomes in at-risk women, and in-depth analysis of appropriate exercise dose is lacking. Objective: We aimed to elucidate the effects of exercise training FITT-V (frequency, intensity, type, time, volume) on hypertension and birth outcomes in pregnant women. Study Design: This study is a retrospective, secondary analysis of pooled data from three blinded, prospective, randomized controlled trials. Women at risk of HDP (11 control, 27 exercise) were identified from the population and monitored in supervised exercise sessions throughout pregnancy. Upon delivery, birth measures were obtained. Pearson correlations and stepwise regressions determined associations. Tests for outcomes between exercise types were completed using one-way ANOVA. Results: Women at risk of HDP with higher total exercise volume trended lower systolic blood pressure during pregnancy ( Conclusion: The current findings add to a body of literature showing the beneficial influence of exercise during pregnancy on HDP risk, and importantly the effect on exposed offspring. Prenatal exercise improved birth outcomes in women with higher HDP risk in a dose-dependent manner, whereby higher exercise volume and duration are associated with improvements in birth outcomes.
