Looking further upstream to prevent fetal alcohol spectrum disorder in Canada.
Article in Canadian journal of public health = Revue canadienne de sante publique, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Half of all pregnancies in Canada are unintended. Whether a pregnancy is intended or unintended has a bearing on the risk of prenatal alcohol exposure. Research indicates that women who experience an unintended pregnancy are significantly more likely to consume alcohol while pregnant. Most fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) prevention frameworks in Canada have adopted a mid-stream approach focused on preventing alcohol consumption among women who are already pregnant. Yet there is a second approach, further upstream, that is rarely discussed as an FASD prevention tool in this country - preventing unintended pregnancy itself. Improving access to long-acting reversible contraceptives for women and girls who are experiencing cost and access barriers to these methods could do much to stem the incidence of FASD and the prohibitive health and social costs associated with this disorder in Canada.
