Perinatal depression at the intersection of race/ethnicity and disability.
Review in Archives of women's mental health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposePerinatal depression disparately impacts diverse groups, with marginalized populations often facing greater vulnerability. While previous research has highlighted disparities in perinatal depression by race/ethnicity and by disability status independently, there is a lack of research examining the intersectionality of these social identities and their combined association with perinatal depression. Therefore, this study adopts an intersectional lens to explore variations in perinatal depressive symptoms associated with the combination of race/ethnicity and disability status in a nationally representative sample of women who had recently given birth.
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional secondary data analysis using 2019-2020 data from the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS), including a sample of disabled and non-disabled individuals across 22 sites. We used logistic regression analyses to estimate associations of race/ethnicity and disability status with perinatal depressive symptoms, performing separate analyses for the antenatal and postpartum periods. In adjusted regression models, we controlled for other sociodemographic characteristics.
resultsOur analysis included 33,854 individuals, including 31,480 (93%) without a disability and 2,374 (7%) with at least one disability. Women with disabilities reported higher prevalence of antenatal (42.7%) and postpartum (33.1%) depressive symptoms compared to non-disabled women (14.1% and 12.1%, respectively). Antenatal depression was most common among disabled Non-Hispanic (NH) White women, while prevalence and odds of postpartum depression were highest among disabled NH American/Indian Alaska Native and disabled NH Black women.
conclusionOur findings emphasize the need for perinatal depression screening for disabled women, as well as culturally appropriate interventions to support the mental health of diverse women with disabilities throughout the perinatal period.
