1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveIncreasing prevalence of substance use in pregnancy presents a public health crisis that is compounded by posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) comorbidity. We aimed to detail the clinical complexities of PTSD treatment provision among pregnant women with substance use histories.

methodsWe conducted a qualitative study using clinical case consultation field notes (N = 47 meetings) which were gathered during a hybrid effectiveness-implementation pilot study of Written Exposure Therapy (WET) for PTSD among pregnant women seen in an obstetrics-SUD clinic [2019-2021]. Patient baseline survey data (N = 25) were used to characterize the sample and contextualize engagement.

resultsParticipants were exposed to a high number of trauma/adversity event types. There was no association between number of trauma/adversity event types and treatment response or dropout. Qualitative findings revealed clinical features relevant to PTSD treatment, including multi-system involvement; parental trauma and substance use; relevance of substance use to trauma context and posttraumatic cognitions, emotions, and behaviors; impact of trauma on experiences of pregnancy, attachment, and child rearing; limited social networks placing women at risk of ongoing violence; and experiences of substance use discrimination.

conclusionPTSD treatment among pregnant women with substance use histories is highly important to maternal-child health.
