Patient Directed Social Media Use Among Participants of Centering Pregnancy Groups.
Article in Research square, 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: Social support in pregnancy and postpartum is important for optimizing maternal and infant health. Group prenatal care offers the opportunity for in-person social support yet does not extend into the postpartum period. Mobile social support models may further meet the needs of pregnant persons and partners during pregnancy and into the postpartum period. However, the use and utility of mobile social support for pregnant people and their partners in the context of group prenatal care and beyond has not been studied. Assessing Centering patients' utilization of existing social media platforms can inform programmatic development. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study among recent participants of UCSF's Centering Pregnancy Results: Participants gave birth between 2018-2021 (68%), were college-educated (97.3%), and regularly accessed social media (>75% across platforms). Most participants engaged in Centering Pregnancy Discussion: The findings confirm the importance of social support, especially postpartum, for health, how mobile support groups can impact these outcomes, and needs and areas of improvement for group prenatal care. Integration of a social media support component to the evolving post-COVID Centering Pregnancy
