Comparing Birth Outcomes in Hawai'i between US- and Foreign-Born Women.
Article in Hawai'i journal of medicine & public health : a journal of Asia Pacific Medicine & Public Health, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 of this study is to examine the relationship between maternal nativity status and preterm birth (PTB) or low birth weight (LBW) for Hawai'i resident mothers, to compare these relationships across different maternal race/ethnicity groups, and to identify other potential risk and protective factors related to PTB and LBW. Using the 2004 Natality Birth Data from the National Vital Statistic System of the National Center for Health Statistics, crude and adjusted odds ratios were calculated using logistic regression to determine maternal racial/ethnic-specific nativity effects on PTB and LBW. Other Asian or Pacific Islander foreign-born mothers had higher unadjusted rates of PTB, and Samoan foreign-born mothers had lower rates of LBW after adjusting for the socio-demographic covariates compared to their native-born counterparts. Given the limitation of this study particularly relating to data quality, further research is needed to identify socio-contextual factors that are involved in the relationship between nativity status and PTB/LBW.
