Incidence of narcotic abuse during pregnancy in northwestern Ontario: three-year prospective cohort study.
Article in Canadian family physician Medecin de famille canadien, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
objectiveTo document the incidence and outcomes of narcotic use during pregnancy in northwestern Ontario.
designThree-year prospective cohort study.
settingSioux Lookout and surrounding communities in northwestern Ontario.
participantsA total of 1206 consecutive births in a catchment area of 28 000 First Nations patients.
main outcome measuresIncidence of narcotic use, and maternal and neonatal outcomes.
resultsIncidence of narcotic use in pregnancy has risen to 28.6% (P < .001) and incidence of neonatal abstinence syndrome has fallen to 18.0% of narcotic-exposed births (P = .003). Daily intravenous drug use is now a common pattern of abuse.
conclusionNarcotic abuse in pregnancy has dramatically increased in northwestern Ontario. Neonatal outcomes have improved as a result of a family medicine-based prenatal and obstetric program that includes a narcotic replacement and tapering program.
