Reproductive Health Services: Barriers to Use Among College Students.
Article in Journal of community health, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
The objective of the current study was to explore demographic, financial, and psychosocial barriers associated with the use/non-use of reproductive health (RH) services. The sample included 212 college students (60 % female) aged 18-19 from a Northern California public university. In October, 2014, students took an on-line survey with questions on knowledge, access, barriers, and use of different RH services and settings. Findings indicated that college students were more likely to visit a primary care setting and/or school-based setting for their RH care. Sexual intercourse was the strongest correlate of having received RH care in the past year, followed by gender, social disapproval, and knowledge of available services. Analyses stratified by gender found a similar pattern among females. However, the only significant predictor among males was knowledge of available services. These finding highlight universities as uniquely positioned to reduce perceived barriers to accessing RH services by making use of technology, promoting health and wellness centers, and providing/adding sexual and reproductive information to general education classes.
