Social Predictors of Continued and Indoor Smoking Among Partners of Non-smoking Pregnant Women: The TMM BirThree Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of epidemiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundSecondhand smoke (SHS) from partners is a major source of exposure for non-smoking women. However, epidemiological studies have rarely examined social factors associated with continued and indoor smoking among pregnant women's partners.
methodsWe analyzed data on 6,091 partners of non-smoking pregnant women in the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study. Partners' age, education, income, workplace SHS exposure (almost never or sometimes, almost every day), and pregnant women's smoking history (never, quit before pregnancy awareness, quit after pregnancy awareness) were used as social factors. Multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the associations of social factors with partners' continued smoking and indoor smoking.
resultsAmong 2,432 smoking partners, 2,237 continued to smoke after pregnancy awareness. Workplace SHS exposure was associated with increased risk of partners' continued smoking: the odds ratio of workplace SHS exposure almost every day compared with almost never or sometimes was 2.08 (95% confidence interval, 1.52-2.83). Women's quitting smoking after-but not before-pregnancy awareness was associated with decreased risk of partners' continued smoking: the odds ratio of women's quitting after pregnancy awareness compared with never smoking was 0.57 (95% confidence interval, 0.40-0.80). About one-third of partners who continued to smoke did so indoors. Older age, lower education, workplace SHS exposure, and women's quitting smoking after pregnancy awareness were associated with increased risk of partners' indoor smoking.
conclusionsWorkplace SHS exposure and pregnant women's smoking history were associated with continued smoking and indoor smoking among partners of non-smoking pregnant women.
