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
Maternal obesity and smoking are associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. These prevalent conditions contribute to health disparities. In this study, we examine whether maternal BMI moderates the impact of smoking cessation on short-term perinatal outcomes. This is a secondary analysis of assessments conducted from several prospective clinical trials examining the efficacy of incentives to promote smoking cessation during pregnancy. Participants were randomly assigned to receive financial incentives contingent upon smoking abstinence or a control condition. Pregnancy outcomes were abstracted from the medical record. ANCOVA and multiple logistic regression were used for statistical analysis. Among 388 women, there was a significant interaction between maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and smoking status on gestational age at delivery (p = .03) and admission to the NICU (p = .04). Among underweight/normal weight gravidas, smoking resulted in earlier deliveries and a greater likelihood of NICU admission than in those who abstained. Among overweight/obese gravidas, there was no effect of smoking on gestational age at delivery and infants of smokers were less likely to be admitted to the NICU. Maternal obesity and smoking have significant individual effects on perinatal outcome. Maternal overweight/obesity appears to moderate the effect of smoking on gestational age at delivery and on NICU admissions.
