Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Urbanization and industrialization in developing and developed countries have led to rise of intrauterine environmental toxins-PM2.5, PM10, NO Aim: To determine association of ambient air pollution exposure with prematurity and low birth weight. Materials and Methods: It is a retrospective cohort study done from January 2021 till June 2022 in a tertiary care hospital, New Delhi. Purposive sampling was done, and for each patient, criteria pollutants exposure was recorded from the government recording stations nearest to her residence and pregnancy outcome correlated with same. Results: Total 1155 deliveries were recruited. Significant association was found between PM2.5 exposure and preterm birth during first trimester ( Conclusion: Current study reveals direct relationship between ambient air pollution exposure and pregnancy outcomes (preterm birth and low birth weight).
