Article in Maternal and child health journal, 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
objectivesThe role of partner substance use as a risk factor for prenatal substance use remains understudied. This study aimed to investigate the association between self-reported partner history of problematic substance use and pregnant persons use of alcohol, cannabis, e-cigarettes, and tobacco during early pregnancy.
methodsA total of 82,180 pregnant individuals screened for substance use in Kaiser Permanente Northern California at their first prenatal visit (approximately 8-10 weeks gestation) during 2021-2022 were included. Partner substance use and prenatal substance use were determined via a self-administered questionnaire. Cannabis use was additionally determined by urine toxicology. Adjusted odds ratios (aOR) were calculated using binomial and multinomial logistic regression.
resultsAmong 82,180 pregnant people, 1,010 (1.2%) reported having a partner with history of problematic substance use. Partner history of problematic substance use was associated with higher adjusted odds of any prenatal substance use (aOR = 1.80; 95%CI:1.56-2.08) and prenatal alcohol (aOR = 1.58; 95%CI:1.33-1.87), cannabis (aOR = 1.89; 95%CI:1.57-2.27), e-cigarette (aOR = 3.38; 95%CI:2.43-4.58), and tobacco use (aOR = 3.66; 95%CI:2.63-4.96). Additionally, frequency analyses showed that a partner history of problematic substance use was associated with higher odds of weekly or daily and monthly or less substance use compared to no use.
conclusionsSelf-reported partner history of problematic substance use was associated with increased odds of prenatal use of alcohol, cannabis, e-cigarettes, and tobacco during early pregnancy. Findings suggest that individuals with a partner with problematic substance use may benefit from targeted prevention prior to pregnancy to reduce substance use during pregnancy.
