The effect of continuous midwifery services on the delivery mode, labor progress, and nursing satisfaction of primiparas during natural deliveries.

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
objectiveTo analyze the effect of continuous midwifery services on the delivery mode, labor progress, and primiparas' nursing satisfaction levels during natural deliveries.
methods340 primiparas admitted to our hospital from January 2017 to June 2020 were recruited as the study cohort and randomized into a continuous midwifery group and a traditional midwifery group, with 170 patients in each group. They underwent traditional midwifery nursing services and continuous midwifery services, respectively. The two groups' delivery modes, labor progress, analgesic methods, perinatal Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) scores, postpartum hemorrhage amounts, Apgar scores, and nursing satisfaction levels were compared.
resultsThe natural delivery rate in the continuous midwifery group was higher than it was in the traditional midwifery group (P<0.05). The maternal non-drug analgesia rate in the continuous midwifery group was higher than it was in the traditional midwifery group (P<0.05). The duration of the first stage in the continuous midwifery group was shorter than it was in the traditional midwifery group (P<0.05). The comparisons made during the second and third stages in the two groups showed no statistical differences (P>0.05). The SAS scores in the continuous midwifery group were significantly better than the SAS scores in the traditional midwifery group at the time of waiting for delivery and at one day after delivery (P<0.01). The postpartum hemorrhage amounts in the continuous midwifery group were lower than they were in the traditional midwifery group (P<0.01). The neonatal Apgar scores and maternal nursing satisfaction levels in the continuous midwifery group were better than they were in the traditional midwifery group (P<0.01).
conclusionContinuous delivery services for primiparas during natural delivery can significantly increase the natural delivery rate, reduce the use of analgesics, shorten the delivery times, alleviate the delivery-related anxiety levels in the primiparas, reduce postpartum hemorrhages, effectively improve the delivery outcomes, improve the quality of the newborns, and improve the primiparas' nursing satisfaction levels, so it is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
