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

Introduction: Obesity and chronic hypertension are well-known risk factors for maternal morbidity and mortality. Evidence suggests racism contributes to the development of these chronic conditions. Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis of the Nulliparous Pregnancy Outcomes: monitoring mothers-to-be (nuMoM2b) cohort, which recruited nulliparous pregnant participants in the United States in 2010-2013. Using logistic regression, we assessed the relationship between experiences of racial, ethnic, and color-based (REC) discrimination (categorized as high, low, or no REC discrimination) and prevalence of a composite outcome of obesity and/or chronic hypertension. Results: Among 8,554 participants, the composite outcome was unequally distributed by race and ethnicity ( Conclusion: We observed a positive, dose-dependent association between self-reported REC discrimination and our outcome of obesity and/or chronic hypertension. By demonstrating this relationship in an obstetric cohort, we aim to highlight the role of racism over the life course in contributing to chronic health conditions and associated maternal outcomes.
