Smoking prevalence among U.S. national samples of pregnant women.
Article in Preventive medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Several data sources exist for estimating U.S. smoking prevalence among pregnant women, yet each differs in ways that have the potential to impact the estimates. In the present study we used the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH), the National Survey on Drug use and Health (NSDUH), and the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS), three common data sources, to evaluate the following questions about estimating U.S. smoking prevalence among pregnant women: To what extent are estimates impacted by differences in whether the samples include younger (<18 years) or older (>44 years) women, represent smoking in any trimester or only the 3rd, and use data from nationally representative or more selected national samples. Among the factors examined, inclusion of younger or older women does not appear to meaningfully alter prevalence estimates. Focusing on only the third trimester likely underestimates smoking prevalence, while the influence of basing estimates on selected national subgroups of women (i.e., only women who delivered live born infants) rather than nationally representative surveys has little discernible influence. Going forward, this research area would benefit from greater consistency in explicitly discussing the sampling methods used and how these various methods may have influenced the estimates reported.
