Determinants of Health Facility Delivery in Northwest Ethiopia: A Community-Based Case-Control Study.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundAlthough Ethiopia has developed many strategies to promote health facility delivery, more than half of the women gave birth at home contributing to high maternal and neonatal mortality. Therefore, this study aimed to identify the determinants of health facility delivery in Northwest Ethiopia.
methodsA community-based unmatched case-control study was conducted in selected districts in Northwest Ethiopia. The sample included 885 infant mothers (295 cases and 590 controls) from April 6-16, 2019. Data were collected using a pretested interviewer-administered structured questionnaire. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to identify predictors, and STATA 14 statistical software was used to analyze the data.
resultsThe mean maternal age was 26.4 years (SD±6.7) for cases and 28.1 years (SD±6.8) for controls. The overall good newborn care qualities were 95.8% (206) for cases and 40.8% (262) for controls. Attending a formal education (AOR=2.1 (95% CI: 1.5, 2.9)), having first pregnancy from 18 to 25 (AOR=1.5 (95% CI: 1.1, 2.1)), living within 1 km distance from the nearest health center (AOR=2.5 (95% CI: 1.5, 4.0)), having ANC visits (AOR=3.9 (95% CI: 2.4, 6.5)), having a mobile (AOR=1.7 (95% CI: 1.3, 2.4)) were the determinants of health facility delivery.
conclusionMaternal education, not having pregnancy at early age, accessing health facilities to the nearby residents, attending antenatal care, and having a mobile were the determinants of health facility delivery. Therefore, strengthening education and health-seeking behavior of the mothers using a locally contextualized strategy is essential. Reaching mothers who are still far from health facility also deserves needs due attention.
