Relationship of social network size to infant birth weight in Hispanic and non-Hispanic women.
Article in Journal of immigrant and minority health, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
The "Latina paradox" describes the phenomenon of women born in Mexico having their babies in the US deliver fewer low birth weight babies than White US born women. Social support and networks have been suggested as factors in this paradox. Network size was included in Utah's Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring Survey (PRAMS) for 4 years. Through an analysis of linked Birth Certificate and PRAMS data, the relationship between birth weight and social networks of four groups of women were examined. Perhaps due to Utah's unique population characteristics and service-oriented culture, the "Latina paradox" was not demonstrated. However, the study did demonstrate that specific social network size options were positively associated with birth weight, and husbands in either culture (White or Hispanic) appear to be the main source of social support. In addition, this study reinforced the importance of carefully planned and executed surveys that are culturally appropriate.
