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

background/purposeThere is an increasing trend in the utilization of long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods globally. The study assessed the utilization of LARC methods and its determinants in a tertiary hospital, southwestern Nigeria using a mixed method study.

methodsA cross-sectional study of women attending the Family Planning Clinic of the tertiary hospital was conducted between November 1, 2018 and October 31, 2019 using both quantitative and qualitative methods. Quantitative data was collected using structured questionnaire while in-depth interviewer topic guide was used to obtain qualitative data from the respondents. The quantitative and qualitative data obtained from the respondents were analyzed using SPSS version 22 and open code version 3.6.2, respectively, and the determinants of utilization of LARC methods were identified using multivariate regression model.

resultsThe current utilization rate of LARC methods was 65.6% and implants accounted for 75% of LARC used. Higher education (

conclusionsThe utilization rate of LARC methods are high, and this should be sustained through improved information dissemination, education of women and involvement of male partners in reproductive health matters including family planning.
