Maternal and Neonatal Outcomes Based on Changes in Glycosylated Hemoglobin Levels During First and Second Trimesters of Pregnancy in Women with Pregestational Diabetes: Multicenter, Retrospective Cohort Study in South Korea.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
This study compared glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy and assessed maternal and neonatal outcomes according to HbA1c variations among women with pregestational diabetes. This retrospective, multicenter Korean study involved mothers with diabetes who had given birth in 17 hospitals. A total of 292 women were divided into three groups based on HbA1c levels during the first and second trimesters: women with HbA1c levels maintained at <6.5% (well-controlled [WC] group); women with HbA1c ≥ 6.5% (poorly-controlled [PC] group); and women with HbA1c ≥ 6.5% in the first trimester but <6.5% in the second trimester (improved-control [IC] group). The PC group had the highest pregnancy-associated hypertension (PAH) incidence, while the incidence did not significantly differ between the WC and IC groups. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve indicated that HbA1c in the second trimester could predict PAH with a cut-off value of 5.7%. The PC versus WC versus IC group showed statistically significantly higher neonatal birthweight and significantly higher rates of large for gestational age (LGA); however, those were not significantly different between the WC and IC groups. HbA1c levels in the second trimester could predict LGA, with a cut-off value of 5.4%. Therefore, the second trimester HbA1c levels were significantly associated with both maternal and neonatal outcomes.
