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

The Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine supports evidence-based screening for and treatment of substance use disorder in pregnancy. The Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine strongly opposes any policies or practices that are aimed toward or result in the punishment or criminalization of substance use in pregnancy, including punitive legislation, routine biologic toxicology testing, and mandated reporting to the family regulation system (e.g., child protective services, child welfare system). The Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine acknowledges and aims to eliminate the racial and ethnic disparities in which people of color are disproportionately subject to substance use screening and testing, reporting to the family regulation system, and the effects of punitive legislation.
