The Association Between Season and Hypertensive Disorders in Pregnancy: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

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
There is increasing and inconsistent evidence of a relationship between hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDPs) and season of delivery or conception. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we assessed the association between season and HDPs. The review protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42021285539). Four databases, the Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science, were searched until September 29th, 2021. Two authors extracted data independently and used the Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale (NOS) to evaluate study quality. A random effects model and the Mantel-Haenszel method were used to calculate pooled Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses were performed to find the source of heterogeneity and Begg's funnel plot and Egger's test were used to check for the risk of publication bias. Finally, twenty articles were included in the systematic review, and 11 articles were included in the meta-analysis. The quantitative analysis of the association between delivery season and HDPs showed that the odds of HDPs was higher in women who delivered in winter than in those who delivered in summer (OR = 1.18, 95% CI 1.02-1.38, P < 0.001) and all other seasons (OR = 1.17, 95% CI 1.03-1.34, P < 0.001). In the qualitative analysis of the association between conception season and HDPs, four of seven studies suggested that women who conceived in summer had a higher risk of HDPs than those who conceived in other seasons. Based on the evidence to date, we found weakly positive relationships between HDPs and summer conception and winter delivery.
