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

purposePrenatal stress is a known risk for poor birth outcomes. This study specifically looked at reported stress during pregnancy and low birth weight (LBW) in Rhode Island.

methodsPregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) data from 2016 to 2018 for the state of Rhode Island was utilized. Stress during most recent pregnancy was dichotomized as: 'none to minimal' and 'moderate to high.' LBW was defined as less than 2,500 g. Multivariable regression analysis was performed, accounting for complex survey design.

resultsIn this cohort, 24% of pregnant people reported moderate to high stress leading to an adjusted odds of 1.70 (95% CI 1.43-2.03) of having a LBW newborn compared to those with none to minimal stress. Primiparity, previous preterm birth, racism, smoking history, and history of chronic medical problems were also associated with LBW newborns.

conclusionWe recommend screening and provision of support services for stress in all settings where pregnant people access care.
