Comparison of birth outcomes of mothers covered by Medicaid versus those privately insured when accounting for social determinants of health.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 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
objectivesTo determine the association between maternal health insurance type and birth outcomes [prematurity, small for gestational age (SGA), Term/Appropriate for gestational age NICU admission (Term/AGA-NICU) & composite birth outcomes (CBO)] accounting for social determinants of health. DESIGN/
methodsA cross-sectional study of maternal surveys and birth certificate data of singleton live births in NY born to mothers with Medicaid (M) or Private Insurance (PI).
results1015 mothers [M = 631, PI = 384) included. Individual birth outcomes did not differ between groups. Adjusting for social, demographic and clinical covariates, M mothers had similar odds of preterm birth, SGA, Term/AGA-NICU admission and CBO compared to PI.
conclusionsM mothers were as likely as PI mothers to deliver a preterm, SGA or a Term/AGA-NICU infant after controlling for social determinants of health. Despite more social adversity among enrollees, our study suggests NY Medicaid recipients have similar birth outcomes to privately insured, socially advantaged women.
