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: Preterm birth (PTB) is the leading cause of neonatal death and a major contributor to under-five mortality. Women's awareness, knowledge, and ability to recall PTB-related themes are essential for prevention and care but remain understudied in Europe. Objectives: To describe self-appraised awareness of PTB, PTB themes recalled from discussions with health care professionals (HCPs), perception of personal PTB risk, and recognition-based knowledge score. Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional, web-based survey of pregnant women at 12-32 weeks' gestation in five European countries. Analyses were stratified by country and by PTB risk. Results: The analytic sample comprised 247 women, of whom 111 (44.9%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 38.9-51.2) were classified as at higher PTB risk. Among these, 35.1% (95% CI, 26.9-44.4) did not recognize their higher PTB risk in the current pregnancy despite a previous PTB. Differences in awareness were observed between countries, with no differences across PTB risk strata. Recall of PTB themes discussed with HCPs and the recognition-based knowledge score were low and did not differ across PTB risk strata. Topic-specific shortfalls in recall and recognition were identified. Conclusions: A disconnect emerged between feeling informed and retaining actionable knowledge. HCPs should reserve time with women to deliver education using evidence-based techniques (
