Optimal Gestational Weight Gain for Women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus - China, 2011-2021.

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
What is already known about this topic?: Joint effects of gestational weight gain (GWG) and hyperglycemia on adverse pregnancy outcomes suggest that lower optimal GWG is optimal for women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). However, there is still a lack of guidelines. What is added by this report?: Optimal weekly GWG range after diagnosis of GDM for underweight, normal-weight, overweight, and obese women was 0.37-0.56 kg/week, 0.26-0.48 kg/week, 0.19-0.32 kg/week, and 0.12-0.23 kg/week, respectively. What are the implications for public health practice?: The findings may be used to inform prenatal counseling regarding optimal gestational weight gain for women with gestational diabetes mellitus, and suggest the need for weight gain management.
