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
backgroundDuring the last decades, the rate of caesarean section is increasing and this can increase the mortality and morbidity. Up to one third of the caesarean sections are attributed to the elective repeat caesarean section (ERCS). This study aims to evaluate attitudes and factors affecting the choice of pregnant women with one previous caesarean section regarding their mode of delivery in their second pregnancy. By assessing these attitudes, this study can help the efforts in developing strategies to increase the rates of vaginal delivery. MATERIAL AND
methodsA cross-sectional design was conducted by a structured questionnaire on 166 pregnant women who had delivered once by caesarean section for their first pregnancy and were in the third trimester of their second pregnancy. Any women with an absolute indication for caesarean section was excluded. The study comprises women who attend the clinic at our center in Northern of Jordan. Proper statistical tests were performed to assess the association between the choice of delivery and selected demographic and clinical factors.
resultsAbout 55.4% responded that they would choose ERCS (n = 92) and the remaining participants chose trial of labour after caesarean section (TOLAC) (n = 74). Fear of pain was the most common reason for choosing caesarean section, accounting for 55.4%. Interestingly, our study did not show a significant association between the mode of delivery and demographic factors, such as age, educational level and occupation. The single independent significant factor influencing patients' choice that our study revealed was "being informed about the complications of TOLAC". The choice of TOLAC was almost four times higher for those participants who had been informed about the complications, compared to those who had not been informed.
conclusionProper counselling is a main factor that affected the patients' choice toward the mode of delivery. Proper pain management may encourage patients to choose TOLAC because fear of pain was a main reason that patients requested ERCS instead of TOLAC.
