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

objectiveThis study sought to describe factors associated with facility-based delivery among women of reproductive age in Kwale County, Kenya.

resultsBetween March and December 2015, 745 women from 15 villages were interviewed through a cross-sectional household survey. Respondents were selected using stratified, systematic sampling and completed a sexual and reproductive health questionnaire. Of 632 (85%) women who had a previous birth, 619 (98%) reported antenatal care attendance. Of these, 491 (79%) subsequently had a facility-based delivery. Factors associated with increased likelihood of facility delivery included respondent's education (odds ratio, OR = 2.0, 95% confidence interval, CI 1.2-3.2, P = 0.004), ideal antenatal care attendance (OR = 2.3, 95% CI 1.4-3.7, P = 0.001) and pregnancy intention (OR = 1.5, 95% CI 1.0-2.2, P = 0.040). Being in a polygamous relationship (OR = 0.6, 95% CI 0.3-0.9, P = 0.024) and having a husband ≥ 40 years (OR = 0.5, 95% CI 0.3-0.9, P = 0.013) were associated with reduced likelihood of facility delivery. Respondent's education (aOR = 1.9, 95% CI 1.1-3.3, P = 0.030) as well as ideal ANC attendance (aOR = 2.0, 95% CI 1.0-3.8, P = 0.040) remained significantly associated with facility delivery in multivariate analyses.
