1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundIndividuals who experience hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDPs) are at increased risk for downstream pregnancy-related complications, yet the variability in this risk among Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander individuals remains understudied. This study investigated the risk for 5 HDP outcomes-chronic hypertension, chronic hypertension with superimposed preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, and severe preeclampsia or eclampsia-among 15 disaggregated Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander subgroups and assessed maternal characteristics that may be driving differences.

methodsWe used infant and fetal vital records linked to maternal hospital discharge records from births to Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander individuals in California from 2007 to 2019. Modified Poisson regression models estimated risk ratios (RR) for each outcome with sequential adjustments to assess the contributions of maternal sociodemographic and health-related characteristics to variability in risk. The largest subgroup-Chinese individuals-was the reference group.

resultsThe cohort included 772 688 individuals. Prevalence of HDPs ranged from 3.7% among Chinese individuals (n=7930) to 13.0% among Guamanian individuals (n=247). All Pacific Islander subgroups and Filipino individuals were consistently at higher risk for HDPs than Chinese individuals, whereas Korean, Vietnamese, and Japanese individuals tended to be at lowest risk. After full adjustment, the highest risk groups had adjusted relative risks 2- to 3-fold higher than Chinese individuals.

conclusionsThe variability in HDP risk observed across Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander populations further demonstrates the need to study health outcomes in disaggregated subgroups. These findings may help providers identify individuals at high risk for HDPs, enabling prevention, prompt treatment, and reduced adverse maternal health outcomes.
