The PREGO Study: A Preconception Cohort to Better Understand Perinatal Mental Health.
Article in International journal of psychology : Journal international de psychologie, 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
Studies assessing perinatal mental health often lack a prospective pre-pregnancy assessment. Administering measures in preconception could lead to a better understanding of changes occurring over time. This study sought to examine changes in mental health during preconception and the first trimester of pregnancy. The PREGO Study (N = 411 participants) includes 393 participants with preconception mental health data; of these, 174 also had data in the first trimester of pregnancy. We assessed symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, distress and sleep health. Results of repeated measures ANOVA showed that symptoms of depression increased (F(1, 265.46) = 26.03; d adapted = 0.26) while stress (F(1, 251.24) = 5.95; d adapted = 0.12) and sleep health (F(1, 161.18) = 9.76; d adapted = 0.17) decreased from preconception to the first trimester of pregnancy. Other indicators remained stable. Our results highlight the need for mental health assessments from preconception through postpartum to better understand trajectories of perinatal mental health.
