Dyadic Care Interventions and Outcomes for Mothers and Their Infants: A Scoping Review.
Article in Pediatrics, 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
objectiveDyadic care of the mother and infant simultaneously may improve postpartum morbidity and mortality. The aim of this scoping review was to synthesize the spectrum of dyadic care models that have been implemented globally, summarize the outcomes measured, and identify research and practice opportunities of maternal-infant dyadic care.
methodsWe conducted a comprehensive literature search through December 24, 2024, in 8 databases. The inclusion criteria were original research on interventions that provided care for both the mother and infant within 1 year of delivery, with outcomes reported for at least 1 member of the dyad. Studies were excluded if the evaluated practices are now considered standard of care or were educational only.
resultsA total of 117 studies from 28 countries met the inclusion criteria. Ten dyadic care models were identified: shared medical visits, provision of maternal care at pediatric appointments, group dyadic care, mother-baby psychiatric units, care for mothers in the neonatal intensive care unit, couplet care, home visits by medical professionals, home visits by community health workers, mobile device interventions, and nutritional supplementation during pregnancy. Home visits by medically trained personnel were most frequently studied. Common outcomes assessed were maternal mental health, infant rehospitalization, breastfeeding rates, and implementation outcomes of acceptability and feasibility. Efficacy varied, with some interventions showing positive impacts, particularly those involving trained health professionals over longer periods.
conclusionDyadic care interventions offer a compelling opportunity to streamline services, build trust between families and providers, and improve outcomes across the life course.
