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

To investigate the prevalence of underweight, overweight and obesity as defined by pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and the relationship between pre-pregnancy BMI and pregnancy and perinatal outcomes in women based on a retrospective cohort. Women registered via the Free Pre-pregnancy Health Check (FPHC) program from 2017 to 2019 in Hunan Province, China, were included to the study cohort. The data regarding maternal characteristics, pregnancy outcomes, and infant characteristics were retrieved from the surveillance system of the FPHC program. Logistic regressions were performed to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and adjusted odds ratios (AORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) to assess the associations between pre-pregnancy BMIs and the outcomes. Among a total of 398,368 women, 54,238 (13.62%) were underweight (BMI < 18.5 kg/m
