Understanding Generational Differences in Early Fertility: Proximate and Social Determinants.
Article in Journal of marriage and the family, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Although US rates of early fertility have declined, they remain high relative to other high-income countries, and disparities by population group persist. The share of the US youth population with immigrant parents has expanded greatly, yet relatively little is known about generational variations in early fertility. This study used Add Health data to investigate: (1) differences by generational status in the risk of early childbearing; (2) to what extent observed differences reflected timing of sexual onset versus post-onset proximate determinants like contraceptive use; and (3) the influence of individual-, family-, and neighborhood-level social factors. Foreign-born and second-generation young women initiated both sexual activity and childbearing later than those with US-born parents. Sequential hazard models revealed the importance of later sexual onset in explaining delayed fertility among the foreign-born, and of family attributes for their later sexual onset. Post-onset behaviors were central to the delayed childbearing observed among the second generation.
