Homelessness in pregnancy: perinatal outcomes.

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
objectiveInvestigate the association between maternal homelessness at the time of delivery and perinatal outcomes, with a focus on neonatal health outcomes. STUDY
designPopulation-based cohort using California's statewide database included 1,520,253 women with linked birth and maternal discharge data, 2008-2012. Multivariable analysis assessed homelessness at time of delivery on perinatal outcomes, preterm delivery, and neonatal intensive care unit admission.
resultA total of 672 women (0.05%) were homeless at the time of delivery. Homelessness was associated with premature delivery at multiple gestational age cutoffs (34w0d-36w6d; 32w0d-33w6d; 28w0d-31w6d; <28w0d) (range of aORs:1.62-2.19), and neonatal intensive care unit admission (aOR = 1.66, 95% CI:1.31-2.09). Among term infants, homelessness remained associated with increased odds of neonatal intensive care unit admission (aOR = 1.84, 95% CI:1.34-2.53), low birthweight (aOR = 1.99, 95% CI:1.36-2.90), neonatal abstinence syndrome (aOR = 2.13, 95% CI:1.35-2.53), hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (aOR = 14.38, 95% CI:3.90-53.01), and necrotizing enterocolitis (aOR = 14.94, 95% CI:2.68-83.20).
conclusionHomelessness in pregnancy was associated with adverse perinatal outcomes including increased odds of preterm delivery across all gestational ages, and increased risk of neonatal intensive care unit admission and low birth weight independent of preterm delivery.
