Relationship between maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and neonatal birth weight in pregnancies with gestational diabetes mellitus: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Aim: The aim of this study was to explore the association between maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and neonatal birth weight in pregnancies with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted between January 2019 and June 2020 at a university hospital in Fuzhou, China. Results: Pre-pregnancy BMI was used to categorize 791 pregnant women as underweight (3.03%), normal weight (51.71%), overweight (32.74%), and obese (12.52%). Among the 791 babies, 11.63% were small for gestational age (SGA), 77.37% were normal weight, and 11.00% were large for gestational age (LGA). The rate of the SGA babies increased with higher pre-pregnancy BMI. The percentage of LGA babies was higher in women who were overweight or obese compared to those of normal weight. Neonatal birth weight displayed a significantly increasing trend with increasing maternal pre-pregnancy BMI when maternal pre-pregnancy BMI was less than 27.78 kg/m Conclusion: The incidence of SGA and LGA babies was higher in the women with GDM who were overweight or obese before pregnancy. The data suggest that different management strategies should be implemented for pregnant women with a pre-pregnancy BMI below 27.78 kg/m
