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

objectiveTo examine the association between preterm delivery and parental separation and identify associated risk factors.

methodsAll opposite sex, married or common-law parents whose relationship status was available at index delivery and for the next 5 years were eligible in this retrospective population-based cohort study in Manitoba, Canada. Parents of children born preterm were matched 1:5 to parents of children born full-term. Parental separation within 5 years of childbirth was the primary outcome. Secondary outcome was the time to separation. Multivariable Poisson regression model was created to estimate the 5-year incidence rate ratios (IRR) of the primary outcome.

resultsParents of 6367 children born preterm (n=164 for <28 weeks, n=1196 for 28-33 weeks, n=5007 for 34-36 weeks) and parents of 30 663 children born full-term were included. Compared with parents of children born term (4.2%), only parents of children born at 34-36 weeks had a higher incidence rate of separation (5.5%, IRR: 1.26; 1.09-1.45, p=0.002), although parents of children born at 28-33 weeks (5.4%, IRR: 1.20; 0.93-1.55, p=0.16), and at<28 weeks (5.5%, IRR: 1.27; 0.66-2.45, p=0.48) had similar IRRs. Time to separation was similar between all groups.

conclusionsParents of children born at 34-36 weeks had higher separation rates than parents of children born full-term. The risk factors identified can be used to identify and provide supports to at-risk parents.
