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

backgroundThis study examined predictors and behaviors of pregnancy-related smoking among women who belonged to a private health maintenance organization and the recall accuracy of pregnancy-related smoking behaviors after 6-years.

methodsA cohort of 725 pregnant women was followed for six years. Major predictors for smoking behavior before, during, and one-year following pregnancy were determined. In addition, accuracy of recall six years postpartum of smoking behavior at the time of pregnancy and one-year postpartum was tested.

resultsMother's education, asthma status, amount of pre-pregnancy smoking, gravidity, and father's smoking status were important in the prediction of pregnancy associated smoking. Agreement for recall of smoking behavior during pregnancy (6 year recall) and one-year postpartum (5 year recall) were 90% and 91%, respectively.

conclusionsDespite potentially adverse outcomes, a proportion of women continue to smoke throughout pregnancy. A number of variables proved to be important predictors of pregnancy associated smoking behavior. These factors should be considered by smoking cessation programs targeting women of reproductive age. Additionally, there was substantial agreement for maternal recall at six years postpartum of smoking behavior at the time of pregnancy and one-year postpartum. This should be considered in retrospective study designs that are primarily based on maternal recall of smoking behaviors before, during, and following pregnancy.
