Is Subjective Cognitive Decline Associated with Behavioral Health Outcomes Among Mothers?
Article in Maternal and child health journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesStudies suggests that pregnancy can alter the maternal neurological function of the brain (i.e., result in cognitive decline) in a way that remains prevalent well into middle and older adulthood. However, little research has explored these changes and how they might affect behavioral health outcomes, such as substance use and depression.
methodsWe merged data from the 2016, 2017, and 2018 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) surveys, with a final analytic sample of 1330 female participants (649 participants were mothers). Chi-square tests or t-tests were used to examine differences in demographic and health characteristics of the sample by subjective cognitive decline (SCD) status. To test the study hypotheses, three generalized linear mixed models were estimated with a logit link.
resultsSCD was not associated with alcohol misuse among mothers (aOR = 0.27, p = 0.23). Mothers with SCD were more likely to smoke (aOR = 3.33, p = 0.01) and experience mental distress (aOR = 6.59, p < 0.001) than those without SCD.
conclusionInterventions aimed at supporting mothers should consider how existing mental health and tobacco cessation programs can be adapted to better serve this population and should aim to identify those that may have early signs of early signs of neurodegenerative conditions.
