State abortion restrictiveness and prevalence of intimate partner violence and domestic violence among recently birthing black and white individuals.

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
Objectives: Intimate partner violence (IPV) and non-intimate domestic violence (DV) during pregnancy may result in poor maternal and infant health outcomes. Whether state-level abortion restrictions, enacted by many states even prior to the 2022 Study design: We analyzed 2020 data from 36 states participating in the CDC Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System representing 1,931,458 deliveries of which 1,368,237 deliveries (70.84%) are from Black and White birthing individuals. We divided states into restrictive ( Results: Overall, birthing individuals in restrictive states had higher odds of reporting IPV/DV during pregnancy than those in less restrictive states (aOR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.15-1.60). Within racial groups, we found that Black birthing individuals in restrictive states had higher odds of reporting IPV/DV than Black birthing individuals in less restrictive states (aOR:1.75, 95% CI: 1.24-2.47). We saw a similar relationship for White birthing individuals (aOR:1.50, 95% CI: 1.17-1.94). Discussion: Even when access to abortion was federally protected, individuals in restrictive states had higher odds of experiencing IPV/DV than those in less restrictive states, particularly among Black individuals. These findings suggest possible detrimental impacts of abortion restrictions and their potential to worsen existing health inequities.
