Contraceptive knowledge among women at risk of unintended pregnancy in Kingston, Jamaica.
Article in Women & health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Low contraceptive knowledge may limit contraception initiation or continuation and, consequently, could represent an important, modifiable cause of unintended pregnancy. The objective of this analysis was to identify correlates of knowledge among women at risk of unintended pregnancy. We analyzed data from a study of 222 young women attending a public clinic in Kingston in November 2018 to March 2019. We measured contraceptive knowledge with seven questions on method reversibility, ability to use covertly, contraindications, and side effects. We used multivariable linear regression to evaluate the correlates of summary knowledge scores and report beta coefficients, which represent differences in mean summary knowledge scores. The mean knowledge score was low (2.7; range = 0-7). Only 30.2% of the participants correctly identified intrauterine devices as more effective than oral contraception, male condoms, and withdrawal. Women who reported that their provider discussed contraception scored higher (adjusted ß = 0.37,
