Prenatal Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor Exposure and Its Impact on Neonatal Gastrointestinal and Urinary System: A Retrospective Matched Cohort Study.

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
objectivePrenatal exposure to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) has been associated with altered neonatal adaptation, but its relationship with early elimination patterns remains unclear. Given the role of serotonin in gastrointestinal and urinary physiology, we aimed to evaluate the association between maternal SSRI use during pregnancy and time to first stool and time to first void in healthy neonates.
methodsIn this retrospective matched cohort study, neonates exposed to SSRIs in utero were matched 1:1 with unexposed controls by gestational age (GA) and weight-for-gestational-age category. The primary outcomes were time to first void and time to first stool. Multivariable linear regression was performed using log10-transformed time to first stool, adjusting for maternal age, GA, and neonatal sex. Sensitivity analyses included size-for-gestational-age and time to first feeding.
resultsA total of 266 neonates were included (133 SSRI-exposed, 133 unexposed). Time to first stool was shorter in SSRI-exposed neonates compared with unexposed neonates (median 7.4 vs. 8.6 h,
