Prenatal diagnosis in low resource setting: is it acceptable?
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
aimThis study aimed to explore knowledge and acceptability of prenatal procedures both non-invasive prenatal screening tests and invasive procedures among Egyptian women in childbearing age and to assess their attitude toward such procedures. Also to examine confounding factors affecting women's attitude toward prenatal procedures. STUDY
designA cross-sectional study on a representative sample of women in childbearing age attending Obstetrics & Gynecology outpatient clinic at Mansoura University Hospital, Egypt. An anonymous questionnaire was supplemented by voluntary interviewers for women in childbearing age.
results465 women were included in the study. The mean age ± SD was 27 ± 6 years. About 44 % of women were knowledgeable about non-invasive prenatal screening procedure, and only 25.5 % had heard about invasive prenatal procedures. 88.8 % express positive attitude regarding performance of the screening tests. Forty-one percent of the group agreed to perform invasive prenatal procedures during their pregnancy. Educational level and family history of congenital anomalies significantly affected attitudes toward testing during future pregnancy. The cost of procedure affected the decision to perform in 56.7 % of women.
conclusionEgyptian women express positive attitude toward non-invasive prenatal screening but showed poor knowledge. Their attitude toward invasive procedure is guarded by the risk of abortion. Education and family history of fetal anomalies are the factors that affect attitudes. The cost of the prenatal test affects the decision made by the women to participate in testing.
