1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: Prenatal cannabis use is increasing in prevalence and associated with potential harm to maternal-fetal health. Pregnant individuals who use cannabis seek information about prenatal cannabis use informally (e.g., online) and adopt practices perceived to reduce harm. However, no evidence-based harm reduction interventions address prenatal cannabis use. Cannabis protective behavioral strategies (PBS) are associated with less cannabis use and fewer cannabis-related negative consequences among non-pregnant populations. There is a lack of research exploring PBS during pregnancy. Method: This study combined two samples of pregnant individuals who use cannabis ( Results: Participants reported using PBS ( Conclusions: Results underscore the need for harm reduction research and validation of PBS and consequence measures for prenatal cannabis use to support informed decision-making among pregnant individuals who use cannabis.
