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

The objective was to use population-based electronic health records for surveillance of intrauterine exposures to substances of abuse, including opioids, and to monitor changes in exposure rates over time. This retrospective, descriptive analysis utilized geocoded neonatal physician billing records representing intrauterine exposures to substances of abuse detected through universal maternal drug testing. Census tract-level exposure rates were identified among the newborn population of Hamilton County, Ohio between 2014 and 2016. Among 27,896 newborns, the authors detected an intrauterine opioid exposure rate of 37.9 per 1000 infants, with 10.5 per 1000 experiencing severe opioid withdrawal (neonatal abstinence syndrome). Individual data were mapped to 222 US census tracts. Tract-level opioid exposure rates ranged from 0.0 to 607.1 (median: 32.9) per 1000 live births. Secondary use of electronic health record data has potential to aid in intrauterine opioid exposure and other public health surveillance efforts without disrupting clinical workflows or placing an additional burden on limited resources. Surveillance of intrauterine opioid exposures may inform stakeholders and enable targeting of interventions and prevention strategies toward the highest risk populations.
