Association of neighborhood-level socioeconomic disadvantage and Life's Essential 8 in early pregnancy.
Article in American journal of preventive cardiology, 2025. 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
We examined whether neighborhood-level socioeconomic disadvantage per the Area Deprivation Index (ADI) was associated with maternal cardiovascular health (CVH) in early pregnancy per the American Heart Association Life's Essential 8 (LE8). This is a cross-sectional analysis from the prospective Nulliparous Pregnancy Outcomes Study-Monitoring Mothers-to-Be Heart Health Study (nuMoM2b-HHS) cohort. The exposure was the ADI in tertiles (T) from least (T1) to most (T3) socioeconomic disadvantage. The outcome was the LE8 as a continuous score ranging from worst (0) to best (100) composite CVH; and included physical activity, diet quality, tobacco use, sleep quantity, body mass index, blood pressure, glucose, and lipid levels. Among 4,508 nulliparous individuals at a mean maternal age of 27.0 years (SD: 5.6) and at a mean gestational age of 11.4 weeks (SD 1.6), the mean ADI was 48.0 (SD: 30.4) and the mean LE8 was 80.3 (SD: 12.5). Pregnant individuals living in neighborhoods with greater socioeconomic disadvantage had lower mean LE8 scores (i.e., worse CVH) compared with those living in neighborhoods with lesser disadvantage (T1 vs. T2 adjusted mean: 82.6 vs. 80.5; adj. ß:2.08; 95 % CI:3.51, -0.64; and T1 vs. T3 adjusted mean: 82.6 vs. 77.8; adj. ß:4.77; 95 % CI:8.16, -1.38). Neighborhood-level socioeconomic disadvantage was associated with worse maternal CVH in early pregnancy.
