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

objectiveTo examine racial differences in the association between gestational weight gain and preterm birth subtypes among adolescents. STUDY

designWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of 211 403 adolescents using 2012 United States natality data. The outcome was preterm birth and the primary exposure was gestational weight gain. Multinomial logistic regression analyses were used to estimate adjusted odds ratios, stratified by race and body mass index (BMI).

resultsBlack and White mothers who gained below the recommendations had increased risks for spontaneous preterm birth in all BMI categories, except obese. All Hispanic mothers who gained below the recommendations had increased risks of spontaneous preterm birth. White normal and overweight mothers and Black, Hispanic and Other normal weight mothers who exceeded the recommendations had decreased risks of spontaneous preterm birth.

conclusionThe effect of gestational weight gain on spontaneous and medically indicated preterm birth is modified by race and BMI.
