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
objectiveTo estimate the prevalence and to evaluate trends and disparities in the occurrence of smoking among pregnant women living in the municipality of Rio Grande (RS), in the extreme south of Brazil, between 2007 and 2019.
methodsAll pregnant women living in this municipality who had a child in one of the local hospitals between January 1st and December 31st in the years 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2019 were included in the study. The interviews took place within 48 hours after childbirth. A pregnant woman was considered a smoker if she smoked at least one cigarette per day for 30 consecutive days in any of the pregnancy trimesters. The respective Pearson's χ2 test was used to estimate the proportions and the trend.
resultsThe mean prevalence of smoking in the studied period was 17.7% (95%CI 17.0-18.3), dropping from 23.4 (95%CI 21.7-25.0) in 2007 to 12.4% (95%CI 11.1-13.9) in 2019. This decrease occurred in all categories of the studied variables (p>0.001). The greatest disparities in the decrease were observed between the extreme groups for income (75.0 versus 34.4%) and level of education (51.0 versus 32.1%) and living or not with a partner (50.7 versus 27.7%).
conclusionThere was a sharp and uneven drop in the prevalence of smoking over these 13 years. Pregnant women at higher risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth were at a clear disadvantage compared to others. Reducing the prevalence of smoking depends on prioritizing interventions among pregnant women with greater social vulnerability.
