FIGO good practice recommendations on preconception care: A strategy to prevent preterm birth.
Guideline in International journal of gynaecology and obstetrics: the official organ of the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Preterm birth (PTB) remains one of the leading causes of neonatal mortality and long-term morbidity worldwide, with minimal progress being made in reducing its incidence, particularly in low-resource settings. Preconception care is recognized as an effective strategy for PTB prevention; however, the fact that more than half of pregnancies globally are unplanned significantly limits opportunities for successful intervention. These FIGO good practice recommendations advocate shifting from pregnancy-centered care to woman-centered care and promote the integration of a baby-centered assessment into preconception care. This approach allows for the early identification and management of modifiable risk factors for PTB across various domains, including medical, obstetric, nutritional, infectious, psychological, and socio-environmental factors. The review emphasizes the importance of evidence-based interventions during the preconception period and underscores the need for policy and advocacy initiatives to promote equitable access to preconception services.
