1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeViolence against pregnant and postpartum individuals is a major public health problem. Homicides during the perinatal period have recently increased, yet these deaths reflect only the most extreme manifestation of violence. Far less is known about trends and disparities in pregnancy-associated violence morbidity. Examining emergency department (ED) utilization for violence-related injuries in this population can shed light on overall incidence and patterns of risk.

methodsWe used longitudinal, all-payer, statewide data from California, comprising all individuals with a live-birth hospital delivery in each year from 2010-2018 (N = 3068,921). We followed annual cohorts of women before and after their delivery hospitalizations to identify ED visits for violent injury. We analyzed trends and disparities in annual incidence rates.

resultsThe cumulative incidence of any pregnancy-associated ED visit for violence was 0.84 % overall; incidence increased slightly over the study period (annual OR

conclusionOur findings suggest risk of pregnancy-associated violence morbidity has increased over the past decade and is amplified for structurally vulnerable populations. The emergency department may be a critical opportunity for screening and providing resources to at-risk individuals.
