Attitudes Towards Family Planning among Bhutanese, Burmese, and Iraqi Refugee Women: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Hawai'i journal of health & social welfare, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The number of foreign-born people living in the United States continues to increase yearly. Foreign-born women in the United States, a group that includes both refugees and immigrants, continue to have higher birth rates when compared to their US-born counterparts. This study examines the cultural and socioeconomic factors influencing family planning choices of resettled refugee women living in the United States. Thirty-two Bhutanese, Burmese, and Iraqi women living in Philadelphia participated in interviews and focus groups. A grounded theory approach was used for analysis. Three overarching themes were identified: knowledge acquisition and experiential learning with trans-border migration and resettlement, changes in gender roles and family relations, and provider relationships and provision of care. Findings from the study show that a stable environment results in increased opportunities and personal freedoms, a sense of empowerment, and the desire for family planning. Women want to discuss options, but healthcare providers must begin the conversation. As health care providers in Hawai'i, a state with about 18% of residents being foreign-born, what can be learned from the Philadelphia refugee experience and family planning?
