Birth preparedness, utilization of skilled birth attendants and delivery outcomes among pregnant women in Ogun State, Nigeria.
Article in European journal of midwifery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
introductionBirth preparedness and complication readiness (BPCR) is an approach initiated to facilitate utilization of skill birth attendants (SBAs) for improved pregnancy outcomes. Despite its usefulness, many women still did not use skilled birth attendants. The purpose of this study is to assess the level of birth preparedness and complication readiness and its association with skilled birth attendants' utilization.
methodsA descriptive sequential mixed methods design was used. In all, 350 women in their third trimester were purposively selected from healthcare facilities. Of these, 340 completed the study yielding a 97% response rate. Structured interviewer-administered questionnaire, a checklist and an in-depth interview guide were used to collect data. Data analysis was done in Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 20 using descriptive and inferential statistics at 0.05 level of significance while qualitative data were analyzed through content analysis.
resultsThere was a significant association between level of birth preparedness and complication readiness and use of skilled birth attendants [χ
conclusionsThe study concluded that BPCR is significantly associated with the use of SBAs and better outcomes were observed in women that used SBAs in Nigeria.
