Maternal Diabetes Mellitus and Neonatal Outcomes in Bisha: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Medical sciences (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundMaternal diabetes mellitus (MDM) is associated with increased risks for adverse neonatal outcomes. However, the impact of MDM on neonatal outcomes in Bisha, a city in Saudi Arabia, is not well documented. This study aims to investigate the impact of MDM on neonatal outcomes in the Maternity and Children's Hospital (MCH), Bisha, Saudi Arabia.
methodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted on 181 pregnant women with diabetes and their neonates who were diagnosed at the Maternity and Children's Hospital (MCH), Bisha, Saudi Arabia, between 5 October 2020 and 5 November 2022. The primary outcome was a composite of adverse neonatal outcomes, including stillbirth, neonatal death, macrosomia, preterm birth, respiratory distress syndrome, hypoglycemia, and congenital anomalies. Logistic regression analyses were used to adjust for potential confounders.
resultsThe total sample size was 181. The average age of patients was 34 years (SD = 6.45). The majority of the patients were diagnosed with GDM, 147 (81.2%), and pre-GDM, 34 (18.8%). Neonates born to mothers with MDM had a higher risk of adverse neonatal outcomes compared to those born to mothers without MDM (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.46, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.25-1.70). The risks of macrosomia (aOR = 1.74, 95% CI: 1.38-2.19), LBW (aOR = 1.32, 95% CI: 1.06-1.66), and RDS (aOR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.28-1.93) were significantly higher among neonates born to mothers with MDM. The types of DM were statistically significant in terms of their correlation with the following neonatal outcomes: hypoglycemia (
conclusionsMDM is associated with an increased risk of adverse neonatal outcomes in Bisha. The early identification and management of MDM may improve neonatal outcomes and reduce the burden of neonatal morbidity and mortality in this population.
