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

Adverse pregnancy outcomes disproportionately affect non-Hispanic (NH) Black patients in the United States. Structural racism has been associated with increased psychosocial distress and inflammation and may trigger oxidative stress. Thus, the nitric oxide (NO) pathway (involved in the regulation of inflammation and oxidative stress) may partly explain the underlying disparities in obstetric outcomes.Cohort study of 154 pregnant patients with high-risk obstetric histories; n = 212 mRNAs and n = 108 microRNAs (miRNAs) in the NO pathway were evaluated in circulating white blood cells. NO pathway mRNA and miRNA transcript counts were compared by self-reported race; NH Black patients were compared with women of other races/ethnicities. Finally, miRNA-mRNA expression levels were correlated.Twenty-two genes (q < 0.10) were differentially expressed in self-identified NH Black individuals. Superoxide dismutase 1 (
