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

objectiveTo investigate the incidence of perinatal features and neonatal morbidities in migrant mothers in comparison with native Turkish mothers.

methodA retrospective analysis was conducted using the medical records of 89 infants born to Syrian immigrants and 89 infants born to native Turkish mothers who were consecutively admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of our hospital between 2015 and 2019. Statistical analyses were used to compare demographic data and perinatal and neonatal outcomes between the two groups.

resultsCompared to Turkish mothers, Syrian mothers were significantly younger and adolescent pregnancy rate was significantly higher (p<0.01). The rates of multiple pregnancy, consanguineous marriage, and prolonged premature membrane rupture were also significantly higher in Syrian mothers (p<0.05). The incidence rates of congenital anomalies, respiratory distress syndrome, transient tachypnea of newborn pneumonia/bronchiolitis, sepsis, jaundice, and feeding problems were the same for infants born to Syrian and Turkish mothers (p>0.05). In addition, the two groups did not differ with respect to gestational week at birth, birth weight, sex, types of delivery, Apgar score, duration of hospital stay, and incidence of infant mortality (p>0.05).

conclusionThe immigrant status negatively affects perinatal and neonatal outcomes. However, the incidence rates of infant mortality and neonatal morbidity did not differ between infants born to Syrian and those born to Turkish mothers. This may be due to the recent improvements in the of overall health status of migrant women or of those migrants living in Turkey being able to have access to increased prenatal and postnatal period policies of mother-child health services which have been successfully implemented.
