Phosphatidylethanol 16:0/18:1PEth as a Biomarker of Alcohol Consumption during Pregnancy.

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
Plasma levels of 16:0/18:1PEth is as a laboratory blood marker of alcohol consumption. In a longitudinal cohort study, the plasma levels of 16:0/18:1PEth were measured in women at different gestational periods and the results were compared with the data from three alternative questionnaires of alcohol consumption during pregnancy. Pregnant women (n = 309) were surveyed using T-ACE, TWEAK, and AUDIT questionnaires followed by measurement of 16:0/18:1PEth by HPLC-MS. According to the survey, 61% of pregnant women had an experience of drinking alcohol before the onset of current pregnancy. Objectively, 60, 51, and 49% of involved women had blood plasma levels of 16:0/18:1PEth exceeding 8 ng/ml in the first, second, and third trimesters. The laboratory-confirmed frequency of alcohol consumption in pregnant women is significantly higher (p < 0.001) than in the survey.
