Substance Use Disorder as a Risk Factor for Postpartum Depression: A Retrospective Chart Review in a Community Hospital.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveThis retrospective study examines the relationship between postpartum depression (PPD) and substance use disorder (SUD) in a community hospital setting.
methodsThis retrospective chart review explored the association between SUD and PPD in a community hospital. Data from January 2016 to December 2018 were extracted from electronic medical records (EPIC EMR (Epic Systems Corporation, Verona, WI)), identifying mothers with PPD (n = 99) using billing code F53.0. Substance use disorder was assessed using diagnostic codes F10-F19. Odds ratios (OR), relative risk (RR), and chi-square tests were calculated to quantify and assess the significance of the association between SUD and PPD. Ethical approval was obtained from the Institutional Review Board (IRB).
resultsAmong 2,517 deliveries during the study period, 51 cases of PPD co-occurred with SUD. Mothers with SUD had a 4.3 times higher risk of PPD compared to those without SUD (OR = 4.8), highlighting a significant association. DISCUSSION: These findings emphasize the importance of screening for PPD and SUD in pregnant and postpartum women, especially in community healthcare settings where routine screening may be limited. Targeted interventions can mitigate adverse effects on maternal and infant well-being.
