Catch-up growth of infants born to mothers with autoimmune rheumatic disorders.

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
backgroundIn women with autoimmune rheumatic disorders (ARD), pregnancy complications or postpartum events are more frequent compared to the general population. Transplacental autoantibodies or cytokines influence various fetal and neonatal outcomes. We compared the growth patterns of babies born to mothers with ARD versus healthy mothers to assess the long-term growth outcomes of children born to women with ARD.
methodsThis was a retrospective age-matched cohort analyses of babies born to mothers with ARD from the hospitals belonging to the Catholic University of Korea between 2010 and 2017. Demographic and autoimmune laboratory test data of the mothers and newborns were assessed. Neonatal growth was measured in terms of height and weight, measured at birth and follow-up examinations.
resultsWe enrolled 142 infants from mothers with ARD and 149 infants from healthy mothers. There was no significant difference between mothers with ARD and healthy mothers in terms of delivery age, parity, abortion, and premature delivery history. The mothers with ARD were diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (81%), Sjogren syndrome (6%), and other autoimmune phenomena (11%). The groups were significantly different in terms of neonatal characteristics such as prematurity, gestational age, birth weight, and height, but not in Apgar score and delivery type. For most neonates, autoimmune laboratory results were normalized within 1 year, except for anti-La/SSB antibody, which remained high in some. The height and weight for age z-score were lower than the normal age groups at birth but showed catch-up growth by 2 years of age.
conclusionsLow birthweight and prematurity at birth for neonates born to mothers with ARD could be caught up by 2 years of age, and maternal ARD does not affect the growth of their offspring.
