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 COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing isolation stressed pregnant and postpartum women and their families pervasively. This necessitated addressing young families' mental health needs while protecting both patients and providers from COVID-19 exposure. Our experience of rapidly adapting Pregnancy, Maternal Postpartum Peer Support, and Mother-Infant Postpartum Group interventions to high-quality telehealth modalities elucidates benefits and challenges of mother-infant dyadic treatment amidst the pandemic. This study compares 2019 in-person and 2020 telehealth services during the period from mid-March through mid-December in each year. Initial program Warmline contacts were similar across years despite pandemic-related restrictions, with 2020 program contacts surpassing the 147 unique patient outreaches during the commensurate 2019 period. Pregnancy Group enrollment remained consistent. Maternal Postpartum Peer Support Group participation increased with transition to telehealth with 27 individuals with over 100 group-based visits in 2020. Twenty-five mother-infant Postpartum pairs initially enrolled in the 12-week multicomponent Mother-Infant Therapy Group (M-ITG) during 2019 in-person services, and 16 completed the program (36% non-completion rate). During 2020 telehealth, 15 of 18 mother-infant pairs completed the program (17% non-completion rate); a greater than 50% reduction in non-completion. We further compare pre-/post-pandemic onset M-ITG participant demographics, enrollment, and Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) scores.
