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 identify Black preterm infant caregiver experiences and institutional priorities regarding screening and addressing social drivers of health (SDH). STUDY

designIn the Centering Black Preterm Infant Caregiver Priorities study, Black female researchers conducted semistructured interviews in 2024 with Black caregivers of preterm infants born in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. Transcripts were coded using a book generated from an interview guide, and the resulting data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Themes were generated and refined through discussion.

resultsTwenty sociodemographically diverse caregivers participated. Five themes were identified: (1) financial insecurity and inadequate access to resources for everyday social needs contribute negatively to caregiver and child health and well-being; (2) a trusted provider who takes a personal approach to screening and addressing SDH is needed in medical settings; (3) inequitably distributed, fragmented, and disorganized medical and social support systems in the transition to home period are burdensome and a source of stress; (4) community-based organizations centering Black families holistically address SDH and promote social well-being and connectedness; and (5) state and federal legislation, policies, and programs are critical opportunities to address SDH.

conclusionsSDH are a significant source of stress for caregivers after preterm birth, and there are opportunities across state and federal legislative policies, community-based organizations, medical systems, and connections across the systems to address them.
