1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveAccess the completeness in IUD services provided by trained professionals and find out the weak links. MATERIALS AND

methodsStudy was conducted on 100 IUD trained professionals of tertiary care hospital and nursing teaching institute. All were given questionnaire that was duly filled by them. Data obtained were analysed. Protocols of case selection, pre-insertion counselling, insertion process and follow-up were assessed.

resultsAll the four criteria were assessed on score of ten. Study group could not get ten points under any of the set criteria. Average of 53% case selection, 31.4% pre-insertion counselling, 42.5% insertion protocols and 46.1% follow-up counselling criteria were observed by study group. Highest compliance of protocols was seen among postgraduate students.

conclusionAlthough IUD training is given to all medical professionals and IUD facility is available up to subcentres but the study shows that completeness in services is still lacking. Ensuring ideal place for IUD insertion, proper case selection, use of specific instruments for insertion and observance of insertion protocols are very vital for the success of IUD.
