Impact of Nutrition Interventions During Pregnancy on Maternal and Neonatal Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Maternal undernutrition continues to be a significant contributor to adverse pregnancy outcomes in low- and middle-income countries. This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the effects of balanced nutrition supplementation during pregnancy on maternal and neonatal outcomes by synthesizing evidence from randomized controlled trials. Across the included studies, supplementation was associated with modest improvements in maternal weight gain and neonatal anthropometric measures, particularly birth weight and length. However, consistent benefits were not observed for outcomes such as preterm birth, stillbirth, miscarriage, or maternal mortality. A small reduction in neonatal head circumference was noted, but its clinical relevance remains uncertain. Overall, balanced nutrition supplementation appears to offer measurable benefits for maternal and fetal growth in undernourished populations, although the strength of the evidence varies, and further well-designed, context-specific trials are needed to clarify optimal implementation strategies.
