Trends of Contraceptive Choices Among Young Women in Inner City Houston.
Article in Journal of pediatric and adolescent gynecology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
STUDY
objectiveAlthough long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARC) such as intrauterine devices and subdermal implants remain the most effective methods of contraception for teenagers, most adolescents continue to use less reliable methods. The purpose of this study was to determine: (1) the distribution of contraceptive type according to age of the patients in our clinic system (Baylor Teen Health Clinic); and (2) the differences in this distribution over the past decade.
designThis study was a comprehensive chart review of at least 15,500 charts for the years 2005 to 2014.
settingBaylor Teen Health Clinic. PARTICIPANTS, INTERVENTIONS, AND
main outcome measuresCharts of patients less than 25 years of age who attended one of the 9 Baylor Teen Health Clinics were reviewed. Contraceptive uptake by age and year was the main outcome measured.
resultsThe percentage of women younger than age 25 years who used LARC increased for all age groups from 2005 to 2014, with the greatest increase for women 20-24 years old (<1% to 9%). The percentage of women using no method decreased for all age groups from 2005 to 2014 with the greatest decrease for women 15-19 years old (9% to 5%). The percentage of women using less effective methods decreased for teenagers younger than 18 years old, but increased for women 20-24 years old and remained the same for women 18-19 years old. Use of pills/patches/rings decreased for all age groups and use of hormonal injections increased for all age groups, with the greatest increase for teenagers younger than 15 years of age (35% to 68%). Our clinic population has a greater proportion of teenagers and young women using LARC than the national average, possibly because of the increased access to LARC when these women enter our clinic system. Nevertheless, less than 10% of all age groups studied used LARC, with the proportion being lowest in teenagers younger than 18 years.
conclusionMore efforts need to be placed on determining the reasons for low LARC uptake despite greatest efficacy in this young, vulnerable population.
