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

Adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs) affect approximately 20% pregnant women, and their incidence is increasing. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cardiovascular health (CVH) during pregnancy on APOs. We analyzed data from 14,930 pregnant women in the Tohoku Medical Megabank Project Birth and Three-Generation Cohort Study. CVH status during pregnancy was assessed using the eight components of Life's Essential 8. APOs were defined as composite outcomes encompassing preeclampsia, gestational diabetes mellitus, preterm birth, and small for gestational age. The numbers of participants with high, moderate, and low CVH status were 2891 (19.4%), 11,498 (77.0%), and 541 (3.6%), respectively. Poisson regression analyses with robust error variance, which adjusted for maternal age at conception, alcohol consumption, conception via in vitro fertilization, parity, psychological distress, social isolation, and household income, showed a positive association between moderate and low CVH levels and APOs (risk ratio and 95% confidence interval 1.15 [1.03-1.28] and 2.14 [1.78-2.58], respectively). Among pregnant women with low CVH, those who reported social isolation had a higher prevalence of APOs than did those without social isolation (36.4% vs. 27.4%). This difference was attenuated for pregnant women with high CVH status (13.6% vs. 13.1%). In conclusion, CVH status may be useful for assessing the risk of APOs. Socially isolated pregnant women are more vulnerable to the effects of low CVH status.
