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
introductionThere are limited contemporary population-based studies on the risk factors for hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), a severe type of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and trend of HG over time, identify risk factors for any and multiple HG health service visits during pregnancy, and investigate HG recurrence across pregnancies. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis population-based record linkage cohort study featured births in New South Wales, Australia from 2010 to 2019. Hospital and emergency data collections were used to identify health service visits for HG using relevant diagnosis codes and were linked to the corresponding pregnancy on the birth data set. Outcomes included any HG and multiple HG visits during pregnancy, and HG recurrence across pregnancies. Annual HG prevalence was calculated, and negative binomial regression was used to examine standardized prevalence trends. Risk factors for any HG and multiple HG visits within a pregnancy were examined using Robust Poisson models with generalized estimating equations and Prentice-Williams-Peterson Gap Time models, respectively. Rates and risk of recurrence were calculated for women with a second and third pregnancy.
resultsOf the 955 107 pregnancies, 21 702 (2.3%) were classified as HG. There was an average annual increase of 6.8% (95% CI 5.3-8.3) in HG prevalence. Younger maternal age, multiple pregnancies, and selected preexisting conditions were associated with an increased risk of HG, with the strongest factor being HG in any previous pregnancy (risk ratio 8.92, 99% CI 8.43-9.44). Hyperemesis gravidarum recurrence at the second (28.9%) and third (54.7%) pregnancies was high.
conclusionsHyperemesis gravidarum history is the strongest risk factor for HG, which has implications for counseling and care that women receive around pregnancy.
