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
Aim: To study the association between lockdown in France due to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and premature births at the Nice University Hospital. Methods: Data concerning neonates born at the level III maternity of the Nice University Hospital and immediately hospitalised in the neonatal reanimation unit or the neonatology department of the hospital with their mothers between the 1st of January 2017 and the 31st of December 2020, included. Results: We did not find a significant decrease in the global number of premature births <37 weeks of gestation, in low weight at birth or a significant increase in stillbirths during lockdown compared to a period with no lockdown. The profiles of the mothers and their newborns were compared when birth occurred during lockdown vs. no lockdown. Conclusion: We did not find any evidence of an association between lockdown and prematurity at the Nice University Hospital. This result is in agreement with meta-analyses published in the medical literature. The possible decrease in factors of risk of prematurity during lockdown is controversial.
