Temporal trends in preterm birth phenotypes by plurality: Black-White disparity over half a century.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveTo examine trends in rates of preterm birth by race and plurality; to evaluate the association between race, plurality, and phenotypes of preterm birth. STUDY
designTemporal trends analyses for preterm birth by race and plurality were performed for the years 1971-2018. Adjusted logistic regression models were utilized to evaluate the association between race, plurality, and phenotypes of preterm birth.
resultsWe observed that 1105,266 (0.7%), 1901,604 (1.2%), and 14,769,746 (9.3%) births belonged to extreme preterm, very preterm, and moderate-to-late preterm categories, respectively. We also observed that the risk of extreme preterm (RR: 2.69, 95% CI: 2.642-2.75) was highest for Black mothers as compared to White mothers.
conclusionOver the study period, preterm births disproportionately impacted Black mothers as well as pregnancies of higher plurality. With the persistence of racial disparities and growing trend of delayed childbearing and multiple pregnancies, targeted intervention is necessitated toward these vulnerable subgroups.
