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

The global rise in obesity presents serious concerns, particularly due to its association with pregnancy complications such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, cesarean delivery, and fetal macrosomia. Maternal obesity also contributes to intergenerational health risks, increasing the likelihood of long-term issues in offspring. Preconception counseling is an essential preventive measure to reduce complications; however, many women miss this opportunity due to unplanned pregnancies. This study explores the impact of pregestational body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) on pregnancy outcomes, underscoring the importance of routine monitoring of these parameters. Existing studies identify both BMI and GWG as independent risk factors for adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes, with elevated BMI combined with excessive GWG posing an even greater risk. Specifically, a BMI > 30 kg/m
