The relationship of adverse childhood experiences of pregnant women with healthy lifestyle behaviours and birth attitudes: A 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
introductionThis study was conducted to determine the relationship between negative childhood experiences of pregnant women and health-promoting lifestyle behaviours and childbirth attitudes.
methodsThe cross-sectional study was conducted with 468 pregnant women between March 2023 and January 2024. Data were collected using a descriptive characteristics form, an adverse childhood experiences questionnaire (ACEQ), a health-promoting lifestyle profile (HPLP-II), and a childbirth attitude questionnaire (CAQ). The study reporting followed the STROBE checklist.
resultsParticipants' mean scores were as follows: ACEQ 1.10 ± 1.84, CAQ 39.91 ± 12.18, and HPLP-II 138.64 ± 23.71. Linear regression analysis showed that HPLP-II scores were significantly lower in non-employed women (β = -0.194; 95% CI: -14.06, -5.44; p = 0.000) and smokers (β = -0.104; 95% CI: -12.05, -1.05; p = 0.020). Lower income perception was significantly associated with decreased HPLP-II scores (β = -0.170; 95% CI: -11.34 to -3.48; p = 0.000). Additionally, higher ACEQ scores were also significantly related to lower HPLP-II scores (β = -0.092; 95% CI: -2.29 to -0.06; p = 0.037). Regarding CAQ, scores were significantly higher among participants with lower income perception (β = -0.200; 95% CI: -6.35, -2.59; p = 0.000), those who consumed alcohol during pregnancy (β = -0.322; 95% CI: -16.36, -9.70; p = 0.000), and those with higher ACEQ scores (β = 0.158; 95% CI: 1.09, 1.58; p = 0.000). DISCUSSION: Pregnant women's negative childhood experiences affect both birth anxiety and health-promoting lifestyle behaviours.
