Prepregnancy Glucose Levels Within Normal Range and Its Impact on Obstetric Complications in Subsequent Pregnancy: A Population Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundWe sought to identify the influence of prepregnancy glucose levels on obstetric complications in subsequent pregnancy.
methodsWomen in Republic of Korea who had given birth between January 1st, 2007 and December 31st, 2010 were enrolled. The database of the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service and data from a national health screening program for infants and children were used. Subjects were divided into seven groups according to their fasting glucose levels.
results59,619 women were included for analysis, and 10.4%, 13.7%, 19.1%, 21.5%, 16.0%, 11.6%, and 7.5% women had glucose levels of < 75, 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, 90-94, 95-100 and > 100 mg/dL. Each 5 mg/dL increase in prepregnancy fasting glucose levels was associated with increased risk of gestational diabetes and macrosomia in subsequent pregnancy. Adjusted risk ratio for gestational diabetes per standard deviation prepregnancy glucose > 100 mg/dL was 2.015 (95% confidence interval, 1.649-2.462) and for macrosomia an adjusted risk ratio 1.389 (95% confidence interval, 1.147-1.682).
conclusionHigher prepregnancy glucose level within normal range was related to gestational diabetes and macrosomia in following pregnancy. Our results may aid in the identification of women at future risk of obstetric complications and may guide to stratify women into normal and intensified care. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT: Higher prepregnancy glucose in normal range is associated with gestational diabetes and macrosomia.
