Longitudinal effects of gestational age on academic performance in children born preterm.
Article in Early human development, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo investigate longitudinal changes in reading and math performance among children born prematurely. STUDY
designWe evaluated data from across an 8-year period for 768 participants in the Western Reserve Reading and Math Project (WRRMP). We assessed their performance on Woodcock-Johnson math and reading subtests as a function of gestational age and parental education.
resultsOn the reading comprehension, word identification, and applied math subtests, gestational age was associated with performance decrements, while parental education was linked to improved performance.
conclusionsPreterm birth continues to predict lower standardized test scores for reading and math across the time period of this longitudinal dataset; higher levels of parent education partially offset these effects.
