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

backgroundLong-acting and permanent family planning methods (LAPMs) are modern contraceptive methods that can prevent pregnancy for greater than one year and include long-acting reversible contraceptive methods (LARCs) (Intrauterine device and subdermal implants), and permanent contraceptive methods (Tubal ligation and Vasectomy). The current study aimed to assess the utilization pattern of long-acting and permanent contraceptive methods and factors associated with their utilization in Lay-Armachiho district, Amhara regional state, Ethiopia.

methodsA community-based cross-sectional study was conducted. Data were collected by using an interview method and the collected data were entered and analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20. Both binary logistics and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to analyze predictive variables with the utilization of contraceptives. A 95% confidence interval (CI) and a P-value of <0.05 were used to declare statistical significance.

resultsA total of 460 women have participated in the study. The proportion of women that utilize long-acting and permanent contraceptives was found to be 65.4%. Educational statuses, residence, attitude towards long-acting contraceptives, discussion, and joint decision-making with their spouse were factors significantly associated with the utilization of long-acting contraceptive methods.

conclusionThe current study showed that there is high utilization of LAPMs. Women's attitude, educational status, residency, frequent discussions, and a joint decision with their partners about LAPMs were significantly associated with the utilization of long-acting and permanent contraceptives. There is a significant impact of husbands (sexual partners) on the utilization and choice of contraceptive methods by women.
