1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveThis study aims to review the literature regarding epidural analgesia and related ethical issues among pregnant women.

methodThe authors were searched many electronic databases (CHINAL, Ovid Midline, Pub MED and Google Scholar, Science Direct Database, Biomed) under the following keywords (Informed consent, epidural analgesia, pregnant women, and antenatal period). The several quantitative studies published in English were reviewed and analyzed. The authors were analyzed the studies using a literature review matrix subheading to author, years published, type of study, variables, design and methodology, finding, conclusion, limitations for practices and limitations for studies.

resultsThe themes that emerged from the literature review were: difference between patient and provider in perceptions of informed consent toward EA during childbirth process; factors affecting the women choice of using EA during childbirth process and awareness regarding using of EA in childbirth among women in antenatal clinics.

conclusionThe process of signing of informed consent for EA in women during childbirth is linked to many ethical responsibilities from women and healthcare providers. The informed consent practice can be enhanced by putting greater emphasis on antenatal information, providing suitable timing of information and developments in recent methods of information release and transfer.
