Association of Maternal Body Mass Index and Maternal Morbidity And Mortality.
Article in American journal of perinatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveThis study aimed to assess the association of maternal body mass index (BMI) with a composite of severe maternal outcomes. STUDY
designSecondary analysis of a cohort of deliveries on randomly selected days at 25 hospitals from 2008 to 2011. Data on comorbid conditions, intrapartum events, and postpartum course were collected. The reference group (REF, BMI: 18.5-29.9kg/m
resultsA total of 52,162 pregnant patients are included in the analysis. Risk of composite maternal outcomes was increased for SMO compared with REF but not for OB and MO [OB: aRR=1.06, 95% CI: 0.99-1.14; MO: aRR=1.10, 95% CI: 0.97-1.25; SMO: aRR=1.32, 95% CI: 1.02-1.70]. However, in the mediation analysis, cesarean appears to mediate 46% (95% CI: 31-50%) of the risk of severe morbidity for SMO compared with REF.
conclusionSuper morbid obesity is significantly associated with increased serious maternal morbidity and mortality; however, cesarean appears to mediate this association. Obesity and morbid obesity are not associated with maternal morbidity and mortality. KEY POINTS: · Super morbid obesity is associated with increased morbidity.. · Cesarean appears to mediate the association between super morbid obesity and morbidity.. · Obesity and morbid maternal obesity are not associated with morbidity..
