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
backgroundRegular monitoring and evaluation improves the quality of health services. Client satisfaction is an indicator of the quality of a health service. Poor maternal satisfaction with antenatal care services has negative outcomes. Currently, women's satisfaction with antenatal care services is below standard in low-income countries such as Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to assess women's satisfaction and its associated factors with antenatal care services.
methodsA facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from September 23 to October 23, 2019. A total of 405 women were involved in the study. A systematic random sampling technique was used. The data were coded manually and checked visually for completeness. The data were entered using Epi Info version 7 and exported to SPSS version 20 for analysis. Descriptive statistic was computed. Thechi-squared test was performed and factors associated with women's satisfaction with antenatal care services were selected for multiple logistic regression at a probability value (
resultsAmong 405 participants, 53.8% (95% CI=48.7-59%) of women were satisfied with the antenatal care services. Age of mothers (AOR=6.04, 95% CI=2.3-15.9), advice on danger signs in pregnancy (AOR=4.53, 95% CI=2.7-7.52), previous antenatal care visits (AOR=3.8, 95% CI=2.0-7.52), respectful maternity care (AOR=8.2, 95% CI=3.3-20.4), and planned pregnancy (AOR=2.8, 95% CI=1.6-4.8) were statistically significantly associated with women's satisfaction with antenatal care services.
conclusionAbout half of the participants were satisfied with the antenatal care services. Age of participants, respectful maternity care, advice on danger signs in pregnancy, previous antenatal care visits, and planned pregnancy were found to be predictors of women's satisfaction with antenatal care services.
