Social determinants of health and language outcomes in preterm infants with public and private insurance.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo evaluate associations of maternal social determinants of health (SDOH) with language outcomes of preterm infants with public and private insurance. STUDY
designSingle center study of 375 neonates born ≤ 28 weeks. Perinatal characteristics were collected, and the Bayley III was administered at 18-24 months. Primary outcome was language scores of <85. Bivariate and multivariable analyses were used to compare groups.
resultsMothers with public insurance had higher rates of psychosocial risk factors. In regression analysis, People of Color (aOR 2.4, 1.47-4.04), non-English speaking household (aOR 4.05, 1.47-11.15) and public insurance (aOR 2.03, 1.18-3.49) significantly increased the odds of having a language composite score of <85, whereas breast milk (aOR 0.47, 0.28-0.79) was protective.
conclusionsPreterm infants with public insurance are at increased risk of exposure to multiple SDOH which are independently associated with language delay at 18-24 months.
