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
objectiveTo assess whether women having preconceptional health care utilization were more likely to have early initiation of prenatal care than were women not having preconceptional health care utilization. STUDY
designIn this cohort study, data were collected prospectively from a population-based Perinatal Health Care Surveillance System in China. The analysis included 195 796 women who delivered single live births in 13 cities/counties during 1997 to 2000. Mantel-Haenszel test was employed to calculate risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Multivariate logistic regression was conducted to assess the association between preconceptional health care utilization and early initiation of prenatal care after controlling for maternal residence, age at delivery, educational attainment, occupation, parity, preconceptional medical disorders, and high-risk medical experiences during the first trimester. SPSS 11.5 (SPSS Inc.) was employed for data analysis.
resultsWomen having preconceptional health care utilization were 2.6 times (95%CI: 2.5 to 2.6) more likely to have early initiation of prenatal care compared with women not having preconceptional health care utilization. When stratified by maternal residence, age at delivery, educational attainment, occupation, parity, preconceptional medical disorder, high-risk medical experiences during the first trimester, and preconceptional medical disorders, this association still existed. After controlling for stratification factors mentioned above and the interaction of maternal age, educational attainment, and parity, women having preconceptional health care utilization were 2.7 times (95%CI: 2.6 to 2.8) more likely to have early initiation of prenatal care than were women not having preconceptional health care utilization.
conclusionWomen who had preconceptional health care utilization were more likely to have early prenatal care than were women not having preconceptional health care utilization.
