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

Adequate dietary practice during pregnancy is central to improving pregnancy outcomes, maintaining maternal health, and supporting fetal growth and development. This study aims to determine the association between maternal dietary practices during pregnancy and newborn malnutrition at birth. A community-based prospective cohort study was employed, enrolling 247 pregnant women with adequate and 248 with inadequate dietary practices. The test of proportion was used to determine the difference in stunting and wasting at birth among newborns of mothers with adequate and inadequate dietary practices during pregnancy. Path analysis was used to determine the causal direction, as well as the direct and indirect effects of covariates on length-for-gestational-age and weight-for-length scores at birth. Betas (
