Examining multilevel resilience as a moderator of associations between gendered racial microaggressions and postpartum mental health and functioning.

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
The United States is currently facing a maternal health crisis, and mental health issues are a leading preventable cause of maternal mortality. We assessed the influence of resilience on the relationship between gendered racial microaggressions (GRM) and postpartum depressive symptoms and functioning. We analyzed data among 265 postpartum Global Majority participants across four Philadelphia and New York hospitals. We administered the adapted Gendered Racial Microaggressions Scale (α = 0.97) to participants before discharge. Postpartum depressive symptoms, postpartum functioning, and resilience were assessed at 3 months postpartum using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Global Short Form, the Collective Efficacy Scale, and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, respectively. Multilinear regressions tested the associations between GRM and postpartum depressive symptoms and functioning. Moderation analysis examined how community and personal resilience changed the relationship between GRM and postpartum depressive symptoms and functioning. Experiencing GRM during obstetric care was associated with postpartum depressive symptoms and lower postpartum functioning symptoms. Personal resilience moderated the association between GRM and postpartum functioning; this moderation was not observed for postpartum depressive symptoms. Community resilience did not moderate the association between GRM or postpartum depression and functioning symptoms. Gendered racial microaggressions, in obstetric contexts, harm postpartum mental and physical health. However, personal resilience may mitigate the impact of racism in obstetric care on postpartum health.
