Gestational Weight Gain Among Urban and Rural Pregnant Individuals Who Smoke or Quit Smoking.
Article in American journal of preventive medicine, 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
introductionApproximately 7.2% of individuals in the U.S. smoke during pregnancy, and cessation is associated with excessive gestational weight gain (GWG). Weight gain is a common reason for not quitting smoking or relapsing. The current study aimed to characterize who is at risk for excessive GWG and determine the moderating effect of rurality given the higher smoking rates and lower access to healthcare services in these areas.
methodsData from the Virginia Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS; years 2009-2020) were used to assess the association between participant characteristics, smoking behaviors, and rurality by excessive GWG status in 2023.
resultsAlmost half (44.0%) of participants experienced excessive GWG; 9.8% of participants quit smoking while 6.9% continued smoking. Respondents who quit during pregnancy had higher odds of excessive GWG than non-smoking respondents (OR=1.83, 95% CI: [1.24, 2.71]). Among those who were non-smoking, respondents in rural areas, compared to urban areas, had a higher probability of experiencing excessive GWG (0.46 vs 0.44, p<0.001). For those who quit smoking (0.60 vs 0.41, p<0.001) or continued to smoke during pregnancy (0.46 vs 0.33, p<0.001), urban residence was associated with a higher likelihood of excessive GWG compared to rural residence.
conclusionsSmoking cessation and weight management during pregnancy are critical to promoting infant and maternal health. Targeted interventions combining weight management and smoking cessation have been successful among the general population and could be adapted for pregnant individuals who smoke to facilitate cessation and healthy GWG in both urban and rural areas.
