Impact of Low Maternal Weight on Pregnancy and Neonatal Outcomes.
Article in Journal of the Endocrine Society, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Objective: To examine the effect of underweight maternal body mass index (BMI) on pregnancy complications and neonatal outcomes. Design: Cohort study. Setting: Tertiary academic center. Patients: A total of 16 361 mothers who delivered a singleton between 2015-2021 with either a BMI <18.5 kg/m Main Outcome Measures: Birthweight, gestational age, neonatal intensive care unit admission, preterm birth, and fetal death; obstetrical complications including preeclampsia/eclampsia, premature rupture of membranes, preterm premature rupture of membranes, and postpartum hemorrhage. Results: Underweight women were younger and less likely to have private insurance ( Conclusion: Underweight BMI during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of small for gestational age and low birth weight infants and a decreased risk of premature rupture of membranes and postpartum hemorrhage. These findings suggest underweight BMI during pregnancy increases the risk of adverse neonatal outcomes, while maternal-related pregnancy outcomes are less affected.
