Adherence to recommended prenatal visit schedules and risk for stillbirth, according to probable cause of death.
Article in European journal of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive biology, 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
objectiveSuboptimal prenatal care is linked to increased risk of stillbirth, but this association is not well-understood. The study objective was to evaluate the relationship between prenatal visit adherence and cause of death in stillbirths. STUDY
designThis is a secondary analysis from the Stillbirth Collaborative Research Network of data with complete cause of death evaluation. Appropriateness of prenatal visit frequency was determined per American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists/American Academy of Pediatrics (ACOG/AAP) recommendations and the novel Michigan Plan for Appropriately Tailored Healthcare in Pregnancy (MiPATH) guidelines. Multivariate regression controlled for differences between groups.
resultsAmong 451 stillbirths included, 63.6% and 55.9% were non-adherent to ACOG/AAP and MiPATH recommendations, respectively. Non-adherent parturients according to the Michigan plan were more likely to have a stillbirth due to hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
conclusionNon-adherence to prenatal visit guidelines is associated with higher risk of stillbirth due to hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
