Mapping multilevel adaptation response to protect maternal and child health from climate change impacts: A scoping review.
Review in iScience, 2025. 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
Anthropogenic climate change attributed increases in air pollution, rising temperatures, and extreme weather events are linked to a higher risk of adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes, necessitating interventions to protect maternal and child health. This scoping review mapped multilevel adaptation strategies implemented to protect maternal and child health from climate change effects. Eighteen unique adaptation strategies we identified included educational interventions, risk communication, air purifiers, air cleaning strategies, nutrition supplementation, cash transfer, employment guarantee scheme, community health worker program, chemoprophylaxis, insecticide-treated nests, home and environmental remediation, and bioethanol cooking fuel. Our findings suggest that these adaptation strategies are generally nonspecific and fail to address the specialized needs and unique health risks faced by pregnant women and young children. Prioritizing the involvement of pregnant women, mothers of young children and local healthcare services in developing tailored adaptation interventions is crucial to support climate change adaptation, resilience, and reducing maternal and child health risks.
