Gestational Diabetes and Incident Hospitalization for Cardiovascular Disease: A Nationwide French Cohort Study.

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
backgroundCardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality in women. We investigated the associations between gestational diabetes (GD) and the incidence of various CVD outcomes.
methodsThis nationwide population-based cohort study included 1 436 468 parous women in France during 2012 to 2013. We used Cox regression to (1) quantify the association of GD with incident hospitalization for chronic hypertension as well as overall and type-specific CVD, (2) investigate the timing to GD-related CVD onset in the postpartum period, and (3) assess the impact of the recurrence of GD on CVD incidence.
resultsWomen with a history of GD (n=101 814) had a 97% increased relative risk of chronic hypertension (hazard ratio [HR], 1.97 [95% CI, 1.89-2.06]) and a 31% higher overall CVD risk (HR, 1.31 [95% CI, 1.22-1.41]) compared with those without such history. There were increased risks of specific CVDs associated with GD (versus no GD), including increased coronary heart disease (HR, 1.71 [95% CI, 1. 50-1.94]), heart failure (HR, 1.41 [95% CI, 1.21-1.65]), and stroke (HR, 1.16 [95% CI, 1.06-1.28]) risks. The elevated risk was apparent as early as 1 year postpartum for chronic hypertension and CVD outcomes, and the elevated CVD risk was more pronounced among women with ≥2 pregnancies complicated by GD during the study period than in those with 1 GD episode.
conclusionsGD was associated with increased risks of overall and specific CVD, as well as the risk of incident chronic hypertension. The elevated CVD risk was present early in postpartum and persisted over time, and was higher with repeated GD.
