Wider determinants of adverse birth outcomes in Birmingham and Solihull.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Birmingham and Solihull face significant challenges related to adverse birth outcomes. This study aimed to identify demographic, socioeconomic, and lifestyle factors associated with an increased risk of low birth weight, premature birth, stillbirth, and neonatal death in Birmingham and Solihull. Methods: Births ( Results: Attributable fraction analysis estimated that 191 premature births and 211 LBWs each year would not have occurred if all women had the same rates as White women living in the least deprived areas. Ethnicity, socioeconomic deprivation, medical care, lifestyle, and vulnerability status were found to be significant risk factors for adverse birth outcomes. Asian and Black women had 1.4-2.7 times the odds of LBW compared to White women ( Discussion: These findings underscore the importance of targeted interventions and support for at-risk populations to reduce adverse birth outcomes in vulnerable communities.
