The Needs of Incarcerated Pregnant Women: A Systematic Review of Literature.
Synthesis in International journal of community based nursing and midwifery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundWith increase in the number of female prisoners, it seems necessary to follow up the conditions of pregnant women in prison in order to identify their needs and provide healthcare and social services to improve their health accordingly. Therefore, a systematic review was conducted to examine the needs of incarcerated pregnant women.
methodsIn this systematic review, we searched the databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE, PsycINFO, and the Cochran Library. All studies including cross-sectional, retrospective, and prospective cohorts as well as case series, which addressed the needs and expectations of incarcerated pregnant women, were included in this review. Two reviewers independently evaluated the retrieved articles, the discrepancies were discussed, and a consensus was achieved.
results31 eligible studies consisting of 5435 incarcerated pregnant women were included in the review. The needs of incarcerated pregnant women comprised six general categories: healthcare needs including prenatal, labor, delivery, and postpartum services; educational needs on pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting; the support needs to be provided by government agencies, social workers, and doula services; the need for psychological counseling services; nutritional needs during pregnancy; and the needs related to the substance abuse management.
conclusionThe needs of incarcerated pregnant women included healthcare, educational, supportive, counseling, and nutritional needs as well as those related to the substance abuse management. Identifying these needs can be useful in developing accurate and appropriate policies and programs to promote the health status of this vulnerable group.
