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

backgroundBoth pregnancy and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) increase the risk of tuberculosis disease, which results in poor maternal, pregnancy, and infant outcomes. Isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) reduces mortality among individuals living with HIV in high-burden settings but has recently been associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes when initiated during pregnancy.

methodsIn this secondary analysis, we used multivariable logistic regression to evaluate the association between IPT exposure and adverse pregnancy outcomes (fetal demise, prematurity, low birth weight, congenital anomaly) in pregnant women living with HIV enrolled as controls in the Tshepiso study, a prospective observational cohort of pregnant women living with HIV with and without tuberculosis disease in Soweto, South Africa, from 2011-2014.

resultsThere were 151 women enrolled with known pregnancy outcomes; 69 (46%) reported IPT initiation during pregnancy. Of the 69 IPT-exposed women, 11 (16%) had an adverse pregnancy outcome compared with 23 (28%) IPT-unexposed women. The adjusted odds of having an adverse pregnancy outcome was 2.5 (95% confidence interval, 1.0-6.5; P = .048) times higher in IPT-unexposed women compared with IPT-exposed women after controlling for maternal age, CD4 count, viral load, antiretroviral regimen, body mass index, and anemia.

conclusionsIPT exposure during pregnancy was not negatively associated with pregnancy outcomes after controlling for demographic, clinical, and HIV-related factors. These results provide some reassurance that IPT can be safely used in the second or third trimester of pregnancy. Additional research is needed to evaluate the safety of IPT and new short-course tuberculosis preventive therapies during pregnancy.
