The Adverse Maternal Outcomes and Risk Factors of Adolescent Pregnancy: Evidence From a Retrospective Study in Astana, Kazakhstan.
Article in International journal of public 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
Objectives: Adolescent pregnancy remains a global health concern. Evidence from Central Asia is limited, where sociocultural factors and evolving healthcare systems may influence outcomes. This study compared maternal and perinatal outcomes between adolescent and adult mothers in Astana, Kazakhstan. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted among primigravid adolescents (10-19 years, n = 135) and adults (20-30 years, n = 106). Data extracted from an electronic MIS and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: No significant differences found between the groups in preeclampsia, PIH, or anemia rates. Adolescents had higher rates of STI (21.5% vs. 6.6%, p = 0.001) and postpartum endometritis (14.1% vs. 3.8%, p = 0.007). Adults exhibited higher rates of PROM (20.8% vs. 5.2%, p < 0.001) and fetal distress (64.3% vs. 18.5%, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Adolescent pregnancy outcomes in Kazakhstan differ from other regions, likely reflecting distinct healthcare access and sociocultural factors. Targeted adolescent-friendly reproductive health services, routine STI screening, and supportivepolicies enabling early and confidential prenatal care are warranted to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes.
