Impact of maternal age and body mass index on the structure and function of the heart in newborns: a Copenhagen Baby Heart Study.
Article in BMC medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02753348 (Copenhagen Baby Heart), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 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.

Abstract
backgroundMaternal obesity and advanced age have been associated with an increased risk of structural congenital heart defects in the offspring. Whether these factors may also cause abnormalities in infant cardiac dimension and function is unknown. This study investigates whether maternal body mass index (BMI) and maternal age are associated with changes in left ventricular (LV) dimensions and function in the newborn.
methodsInfants enrolled in the Copenhagen Baby Heart Study (CBHS), who were born at term, and contributed with a transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) within 60 days of birth were included. The exposure variables were prepregnancy maternal BMI (kg/m
resultsThe study cohort included 24,294 infants. Compared with infants in the BMI reference group, infants born to women with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m
conclusionsSystematic population-based echocardiography of infants showed that a maternal prepregnancy BMI ≥ 25 kg/m CLINICAL
