Effect of Perinatal and Maternal Factors on Blood Pressure and Adiposity at Age 3.
Observational study in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The specific aim of the project was to evaluate the relationship between perinatal and maternal factors on childhood blood pressure (BP) and adiposity outcomes at Age 3. A retrospective case-control study of 128 children and their mothers enrolled in the Generations Project was completed to examine the association between different perinatal and maternal factors on childhood BP and adiposity outcomes at Age 3. The Generations Project of the Northwell Health System is a longitudinal, observational, population-based study following infants and their biological mothers. Using multivariable regression analysis, cesarean delivery (β = 0.07, CI = 0.04-0.10, p < 0.001) and small for gestational age (β = 0.07, CI = 0.002-0.13, p = 0.04) were individually associated with greater systolic blood pressure index during childhood. In adjusted regression analysis, IVF was associated with greater odds of elevated BP status (OR = 3.52, CI = 1.04-12.0, p = 0.04). Additionally, low birth weight (β = -0.86, CI = -1.64 to -0.08, p = 0.03) was associated with lower childhood body mass index Z-scores. It can be concluded that adverse perinatal and maternal conditions can create a suboptimal intrauterine environment that is ideal for immediate survival but can alter the trajectory of the developing fetus and lead to negative health consequences. This study builds upon the existing research examining the effect different perinatal and maternal conditions have on childhood health and expands on the limited research investigating the potential impact cesarean delivery and in vitro fertilization have on offspring BP and adiposity.
