Low Calcium Intake in High-Risk Pregnant Women: What are the Associated Factors?
Observational study in Maternal and child health journal, 2026. 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
objectivesThis study aimed to investigate the dietary calcium intake in high-risk pregnant women and determine the factors associated with the adequacy of the calcium requirements.
methodsA prospective cohort study was carried out with adult high-risk pregnant women, in the third trimester of pregnancy. Sociodemographic data, obstetric history, maternal comorbidity, pre-gestational body mass index were collected from medical records and three 24-h dietary recalls were performed.
resultsA total of 125 pregnant women were included. The mean calcium intake was 652.76 ± 294.58 mg/day and 24.8% of women had adequate calcium intake. We found a correlation between low daily calcium intake (< 800 mg) with non-white pregnant women (p 0.017), and obesity (p = 0.010). Eating frequency demonstrated an inverse correlation with low daily calcium intake (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS FOR PRACTICE: Dietary calcium intake was insufficiente for most high risk pregnant women in this study. Eating frequency was associated with improved calcium intake, while obesity and non-White race/ethnicity were risk factors for inadequate intake.
