Association between parity and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes: a population-based cross-sectional study.

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
Objective: This study aimed to comprehensively assess the association between parity and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes among Chinese women, particularly across different age and educational strata, in the context of recent changes in China's birth policy. Methods: This population-based cross-sectional study analyzed data from 451,002 women who delivered at 22 hospitals in 10 cities of Hebei Province, China, between 2013 and 2022. Participants were categorized into three parity groups: the nulliparous (parity = 0) group, primiparous (parity = 1) group, and multiparous (parity ≥ 2) group. Temporal trends in parity composition and maternal age were analyzed using a joinpoint regression analysis to identify significant transition points. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the independent associations between parity and adverse outcomes, adjusting for potential confounders. Subgroup analyses were conducted by maternal age and educational level to examine effect modifications. Results: From 2013 to 2022, the proportion of multiparous (parity ≥ 2) women and the average maternal age at delivery increased significantly. The joinpoint analysis revealed notable transitions approximately in 2017 in parity composition and in 2019 for maternal age trends among multiparous women, coinciding with major policy changes. After adjusting for confounders, higher parity (compared to nulliparity) was associated with increased risks of anemia, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), placenta previa, preterm delivery, macrosomia, stillbirth, and neonatal death ( Conclusion: The risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes varies significantly by parity, and these relationships are further modified by maternal age and educational level. Tailored prenatal strategies considering parity, age, and education are essential to mitigate risks and improve maternal and neonatal health.
