Quantifying the Spatial Inequality and Temporal Trends in Maternal Smoking Rates in Glasgow.
Article in The annals of applied statistics, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Maternal smoking is well known to adversely affect birth outcomes, and there is considerable spatial variation in the rates of maternal smoking in the city of Glasgow, Scotland. This spatial variation is a partial driver of health inequalities between rich and poor communities, and it is of interest to determine the extent to which these inequalities have changed over time. Therefore in this paper we develop a Bayesian hierarchical model for estimating the spatio-temporal pattern in smoking incidence across Glasgow between 2000 and 2013, which can identify the changing geographical extent of clusters of areas exhibiting elevated maternal smoking incidences that partially drive health inequalities. Additionally, we provide freely available software via the R package CARBayesST to allow others to implement the model we have developed. The study period includes the introduction of a ban on smoking in public places in 2006, and the results show an average decline of around 11% in maternal smoking rates over the study period.
