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

backgroundHypertension is a major driver of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in women, with risk trajectories that evolve across the female life course. From reproductive years through menopause, sex-specific biological, hormonal, and social factors contribute to unique patterns of blood pressure risk and cardiovascular vulnerability.

objectiveTo provide a life-course review of hypertension in adult women and highlight stage-specific risk factors, clinical considerations, and opportunities for prevention and management. CONTENT: Women experience distinct exposures that influence hypertension risk, including hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, adverse pregnancy outcomes, psychosocial stressors, cardiometabolic changes, and the transition through menopause. This review integrates key recommendations from the 2025 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association High Blood Pressure Guideline and emphasizes practical, stage-specific approaches to screening, risk stratification, and treatment tailored to women.

conclusionsA life-stage-specific, sex-informed approach to hypertension is essential to improve early identification, optimize treatment, and reduce long-term cardiovascular risk in women. Addressing persistent evidence gaps and prioritizing implementation of sex-specific care strategies will be critical to advancing equitable cardiovascular outcomes.
