Antenatal and postpartum depression among women who conceived after pregnancy loss: a longitudinal study.
Article in Archives of women's mental health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeAlthough the relationship between previous pregnancy loss and perinatal depression has been explored, most previous research has been cross-sectional and has not utilized diagnostic evaluation techniques. This study longitudinally examined the relationship using the self-administered web-based World Health Organization Composite International Diagnostic Interview 3.0.
methodsThis study used data from a control group of pregnant women in a randomized controlled trial conducted between November 2019 and March 2020. An accelerated failure time model with Weibull distribution was conducted to evaluate the impact of previous pregnancy loss by number (never, once, and two or more times) on the onset of perinatal depression from 18 ± 2 weeks (baseline) to 3 months postpartum.
resultsThe final analysis included 2,347 participants. The risk of developing perinatal depression was significantly higher for those with two or more previous pregnancy losses compared to those with no previous pregnancy loss (adjusted models: time ratio 0.17, 95% CI 0.03-0.86, p = 0.033). No statistically significant difference was found between those with one pregnancy loss and those with no previous pregnancy loss (adjusted models: time ratio 0.99, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.24-4.04, p = 0.990).
conclusionWomen who experienced repeated pregnancy loss had an elevated risk of diagnosable perinatal depression. Thus, it is crucial to consider interventions targeting pregnant women who have experienced repeated pregnancy loss to prevent perinatal depression.
