The EVA (Early Vascular Aging) Study: Association of Central Obesity With Worse Arterial Health After Preeclampsia.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background Women with preeclampsia have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease. This is partly explained by the worse arterial health after preeclampsia. Central obesity (CO) is a risk factor for both preeclampsia and cardiovascular disease. Whether CO contributes to further worsening of arterial health after preeclampsia remains unclear. Our objective was to evaluate the effect of CO and previous preeclampsia on arterial hemodynamics. Methods and Results We studied 40 women with previous preeclampsia (<6 years) and 40 age-matched controls with previous normotensive pregnancy in the same timeframe. We estimated arterial hemodynamics with validated techniques combining applanation tonometry and echocardiography. CO was defined as a waist-to-hip ratio ≥0.85. Differences in arterial hemodynamics across the 3 groups (preeclampsia with CO, preeclampsia without CO, and controls) were assessed with multivariable linear regression models adjusted for potential confounders. Twenty-six (65%) of the participants with preeclampsia had CO compared with 18 (45%) controls. Mean waist-to-hip ratio in patients with preeclampsia with CO, those with preeclampsia and no CO, and controls was 0.94±0.05, 0.80±0.04, and 0.83±0.07, respectively. In multivariable analyses, women with preeclampsia and CO had higher central blood pressure, arterial stiffness (carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity), steady arterial load (systemic vascular resistance), and wave reflections (reflected pressure wave amplitude, augmentation index) compared with controls (
