Perinatal Health Profiles Associated With Removal From the Home and Subsequent Child Protective Services Report in Maltreated Infants.
Article in Child maltreatment, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Infants face the highest risk of abuse and neglect nationally. There is a compelling need to understand the individual risk factors and needs of families of maltreated infants so that prevention efforts can be tailored for optimal effectiveness. Using linked birth certificate and CPS records data, we employed latent class analysis to identify distinct profiles of perinatal health factors associated with infant maltreatment. Classes were then regressed onto two key child welfare outcomes-removal from the home and re-report. Results indicated 10 latent classes primarily associated with supervisory neglect and presumed prenatal substance exposure. Rapid repeat pregnancy, smoking during pregnancy and inadequate prenatal care emerged as key risk factors. Presumed substance exposure was associated with high risk of removal from the home and low risk of re-report. The opposite was found for supervisory neglect. Substantial variation existed across classes and types of maltreatment, suggesting a need for tailored prevention strategies.
