Hormonal contraceptive method choice among young, low-income women: how important is the provider?
Article in Patient education and counseling, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 papers.
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
objectivesSeveral new methods are available, but we know little about successful integration of contraceptive technologies into services. We investigated provider factors associated with the initiation of new hormonal methods among women at high risk of unintended pregnancy.
methodsThis cohort study enrolled 1387 women aged 15-24 starting hormonal contraception (vaginal ring, transdermal patch, oral contraceptive, or injectable) at four family planning clinics in low-income communities. We measured provider factors associated with method choice, using multinomial logistic regression.
resultsRing and patch initiators were more likely than women starting oral contraceptives to report that they chose their method due to provider counseling (p<0.001). Contraceptive knowledge in general was low, but initiation of a new method, the ring, was associated with higher knowledge about all methods after seeing the provider (p<0.001). Method initiated varied with provider site (p<0.001). These associations remained significant, controlling for demographics and factors describing the provider-patient relationship, including trust in provider and continuity of care.
conclusionWomen's reports of provider counseling and of their own contraceptive knowledge after the visit was significantly associated with hormonal method initiated. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: More extensive counseling and patient education should be expected for successful integration of new hormonal methods into clinical practice.
