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
backgroundThe growth and development of the fetus inside the womb depends on several factors, including the weight gain of the mother during pregnancy. The aim of the current research is to determine the relationship between anthropometric indicators of the mother during pregnancy and the weight, height, and head circumference of the infant at birth. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe present study is a Historical cohort study that was conducted on 1623 pregnant mothers from the beginning of pregnancy to delivery by census method in 4 reference and specialized gynecology and obstetrics hospitals affiliated to Shahid Sadougi University of Medical Sciences in Yazd from 2016 to 2021. The tools used were the questionnaires approved by the Ministry of Health and the Research Council of the University to conduct the mother-infant cohort. Data analysis was performed with SPSS Software Version 22 with analytical statistical tests.
resultsThe baby's weight had a significant negative relationship with the mother's weight and the mother's body mass index at the beginning of pregnancy. The baby's height had a significant positive difference with the body mass index at the beginning of pregnancy. The baby's head circumference had a positive and significant relationship with the mother's weight in the third trimester of pregnancy.
conclusionAccording to the results of the study and the importance of the health of the mother during pregnancy due to the effect on the health of the fetus, it is recommended to monitor the weight of mothers more sensitively from before pregnancy to the end of pregnancy.
