Navigating birth plans: illuminating neonatal provider perspectives in prenatally diagnosed complex fetal anomalies.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2026. 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesBirth plans include preferences for neonatal care in prenatally diagnosed complex medical conditions. This study aimed to determine how neonatal providers interpret birth plans for those with prenatally diagnosed life-limiting conditions. SUBJECTS/
methodsThis single-site study of neonatal attendings, fellows, advance practice providers, and pediatricians assessed provider actions to prompts associated with potential limitations of care identified in birth plans via three case scenarios developed by palliative care and neonatal providers, with expert review. Data analysis included descriptive statistics and Chi-square or Fisher's exact test, to assess associations between responses and demographics.
resultsSeventy-five providers completed the survey (54% response rate). We identified high degree of variability in responses, including high-risk interventions. Previous palliative care training had little impact on interpretation of birth plans.
conclusionHigh degrees of variability in birth plan interpretation supports their utility to guide discussion with families, rather than a step-by-step guide for care.
