Gestational weight gain targets during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy for women with gestational diabetes mellitus in China.
Article in European journal of clinical nutrition, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesGestational weight gain (GWG) recommendations for pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in China are lacking. The present study aims to examine whether specific GWG targets for women with GDM can improve pregnancy outcomes in comparison with GWG according to the Institute of Medicine (IOM) targets. SUBJECTS/
methodsPregnant women diagnosed with GDM were selected from a retrospective cohort study of 8299 singleton pregnant women aged 18-45 years in 2012 (n = 1820). GWG ranges were calculated using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis (ROC targets) and the interquartile range (IR) method (the range from the 25th to 75th percentiles of the GWG among GDM women without adverse pregnancy outcomes, IR targets).
resultsThe incidences of small for gestational age (SGA) births and pregnancy hypertension among women with GDM who gained weight within the ROC targets were lower than the incidences in women who gained weight within the IOM targets (SGA, 7.5% vs. 8.6%; pregnancy hypertension, 12.6% vs. 14.1%; both P < 0.05). GWG was associated with a risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes in the total sample (estimated values ranged from -2.95 to 2.08, all P < 0.05). No statistically significant associations between GWG and adverse pregnancy outcomes were observed in subgroups of pregnant women with appropriate GWGs according to the ROC, IR, and IOM targets. The ROC targets exhibited higher negative predictive values for adverse pregnancy outcomes than the IR and IOM targets.
conclusionThe ROC targets improved pregnancy outcomes and thus represent potential special GWG guidelines for women with GDM in China.
