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

Introduction: Hypertensive disorders are a major cause of maternal mortality, and early detection can reduce risks for mothers and infants. Implementing evidence based, context appropriate strategies may improve outcomes. This study aimed to propose policy options to strengthen monitoring and management of hypertension in pregnancy. Methods: The study consisted of two phases. First, a scoping review synthesized global strategies for improving hypertension management during pregnancy. Searches were conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library, SID, and Google Scholar without time limits, restricted to English and Persian studies. Based on the findings, policy options were developed. In the second phase, 13 experts evaluated these options across five criteria-population benefit, cost/economics, ethics/equity, feasibility, and constituency acceptance-using a five point Likert scale. The top options were further analyzed for advantages, disadvantages, and implementation needs. Results: From 2,253 identified records, 14 studies informed five policy options: (a) an educational video package on hypertension and preventive self‑care; (b) a maternal mobile application for hypertension management; (c) remote self‑monitoring of blood pressure; (d) a smart multimodal management system; and (e) ambulatory monitoring with Holter devices. Experts ranked the educational video package highest overall and highest for cost/economic, ethics/equity, and feasibility, the mobile application highest for constituency acceptance, and remote blood pressure monitoring highest for population benefit. Conclusion: Integrating global evidence with expert input yielded three priority policy options: educational video‑based training, a maternal hypertension management app, and remote self‑monitoring of blood pressure. These strategies emphasize empowerment and improved self‑management for pregnant women.
