Modern contraceptive utilization and its associated factors among married women in Senegal: a multilevel analysis.
Article in BMC public health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 47 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
backgroundUtilization of modern contraceptives is still low in low-and middle-income countries, although fertility and population growth rates are high. In Senegal, modern contraceptive utilization is low, with few studies focusing on its associated factors. This study examined modern contraceptive use and its associated factors among married women in Senegal.
methodsData from the 2017 Continuous Demographic and Health Survey (C-DHS) on 11,394 married women was analysed. We examined the associations between the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of women and their partners and modern contraceptive use using multilevel logistic regression models. Adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated.
resultsThe utilization of modern contraceptives among married women was 26.3%. Individual level factors associated with modern contraceptive use were women's age (45-49 years-aOR = 0.44, 0.30-0.63), women's educational level (higher-aOR = 1.88, 1.28-2.76) husband's educational level (higher-aOR = 1.43, 1.10-1.85)), number of living children (5 or more children-aOR = 33.14, 19.20-57.22), ideal number of children (2 children-aOR = 1.95, 1.13-3.35), desire to have more children (wants no more-aOR = 2.46, 2.06-2.94), ethnicity (Diola-aOR = 0.70, 0.50-0.99), media exposure (yes-aOR = 1.44, 1.16-1.79)), wealth index (richer-aOR = 1.31, 1.03-1.67) and decision making power of women (decision making two-aOR = 1.20, 1.02-1.41). Whereas, region (Matam-aOR = 0.35, 0.23-0.53), place of residence (rural-aOR = 0.76, 0.63-0.93), community literacy level (high-aOR = 1.31, 1.01-1.71) and community knowledge level of modern contraceptives (high-aOR = 1.37, 1.13-1.67) were found as significant community level factors.
conclusionsThe findings indicate that both individual and community level factors are significantly associated with modern contraceptive use among married women in Senegal. Interventions should focus on enhancing literacy levels of women, their husbands and communities. Furthermore, strengthening awareness and attitude towards family planning should be given priority, especially in rural areas and regions with low resources.
