Effects of Maternal Age on Fetus and Perinatal Outcomes in a Tertiary Care Center: An Observational Study.
Observational study in JNMA; journal of the Nepal Medical Association, 2024. 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: The early and late pregnancy both can be hazardous for mother and child. The study aims to explore the maternal age group among Nepalese women who delivered in Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital and its effects on perinatal outcomes. Methods: An observational cross-section study was carried out from February to September, 2023 with the records of maternity cases at a tertiary care hospital after receiving ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee [Reference number: 130(6-11) E2-2 079/080]. The records of maternity cases of four years duration from April, 2018 onwards were included. Data was entered in Microsoft Excel 2016 and descriptive analysis was done. Results: Out of 13062 maternity cases, the prevalence of pregnancy in normal reproductive age was 12035 (92.13%). A total of 882 (6.67%) maternity cases were in advanced age and 145 (1.11%) were in teen age. The alive newborns which were more in normal reproductive age was 12008 (99.77%) and stillbirth which was more in teen age pregnancy was 4 (2.75%). The low-birth-weight newborns distributed more in teen age pregnancy was 44 (30.34%) and high birth weight newborns distributed more in advanced age pregnancy was 18 (2.04%). Conclusions: The abnormal birth weight and stillbirths were common in teen age and advanced age pregnancy.
