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
backgroundEthiopia's population is currently estimated to be 117,814,659 people and continues to have countries with the highest maternal mortality rates. Family planning is one of the most effective techniques for lowering mother and child mortality, in addition to limiting rapid population expansion.
objectiveThe aim of this study was to assess level and determinants of long-acting family planning method among reproductive age women in Harar, Eastern Ethiopia, 2021.
methodCommunity-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 845 randomly selected reproductive age women. Data were collected by trained data collector using pretested structured questionnaire. Data were coded and entered into Epidata v.3 and analyzed using SPSS v.26 software. Descriptive statistics, bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used. Variable with p-value less than 0.05 was declared as statistically significant.
resultThe prevalence of long-acting family planning method was 74.7%, while 53.6% and 46.4% was from rural and urban, respectively. The mean age of participants was 28.5 (± 5.6) years. Married women four times (AOR: 4.1; 95% CI: 1.6, 10.4) more likely to use long-acting family planning method than single women. Women with educated husband four times (AOR: 4.4; 95% CI: 1.8, 10.6) more likely to use long-acting family planning method than women with illiterate husband.
conclusionThere is high level of utilization of long-acting family planning. The women's marital status, increased education level of husbands, increasing in age of women, intention to spacing birth, and having less than five children were found to significantly increase the utilization of long-acting family planning.
