Prevalence of oral rehydration therapy use and associated factors among under-five children with diarrhea in Dangure, Benishangul Gumuz Region, Ethiopia/2018.
Article in BMC research notes, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
objectivesThis study aims to assess the prevalence of oral rehydration therapy use and associated factors among under-five children with diarrhoea in Dangure district, Benishangul Gumuz Region, Ethiopia/2018.
resultA total of 615 under-five children who suffered from diarrhoea 2 weeks before the study were included and the response rate was 610 (99%). Among the total children participated in this study 189 (31%) were between 12 and 23 months with mean 23.5 and SD ± 6.9. Five hundred seventeen (84.8%) of mothers had access to oral rehydration therapy and 85% of mother's home had taken less than 1 h distance from the health facility. The prevalence of oral rehydration therapy is 51%. Two hundred sixty-seven (43.8%) mothers mentioned correctly about the importance of oral rehydration therapy which is to replace fluid while other 243 (39.8%) mothers stated that oral rehydration therapy uses to decrease diarrhoea. Mother's educational status, monthly income, knowledge of oral rehydration therapy, previous experience and seeking advice for treatment from health facilities were factors associated with oral rehydration therapy use.
