Risk of Stillbirth Among Foreign-Born Mothers in the United States.
Article in Journal of immigrant and minority health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The objective of this study is to assess the impact of maternal nativity on stillbirth in the US. We utilized the US Birth Data and Fetal Death Data for the years 2014-2017. Our analysis was restricted to live and stillbirths (N= of 14,867,880) that occurred within the gestational age of 20-42 weeks. The fetuses-at risk approach was used to generate stillbirth trends by gestational age. Adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression model was utilized to estimate the association between maternal nativity and stillbirth. Overall, the gestational week-specific prospective risk of stillbirth was consistently higher for native-born than their foreign-born mothers. Foreign-born mothers were 20% less likely to experience stillbirth than their native-born counterparts (AHR = 0.80; 95% CI = 0.78-0.81). Delineating the factors influencing the observed effect of maternal nativity on birth outcomes should be a research priority to inform strategies to address adverse birth outcomes in the US.
