The public health role of caseloading midwives in advancing health equity in childbearing women and babies living in socially deprived areas in England: The Mi-CARE Study protocol.
Article in European journal of midwifery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This article outlines the protocol for a qualitative Constructivist Grounded Theory study, examining the public health role of caseloading midwives working in a continuity model of care in areas of urban social deprivation. The study is currently being conducted in a city in the south of England during the COVID-19 pandemic. Focusing specifically on the Social Determinants of Health impacting women and babies in this context and from the perspectives of women themselves, the study is developing a theoretical framework examining the actions caseloading midwives take in response to these determinants and how these actions contribute to advancing equity and equality for women and babies at increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes. Examining and integrating the experiences of women and midwives from a Constructivist Grounded Theory perspective, the study findings will inform current NHS maternity policy and contribute to our understanding about the social processes and mechanisms underpinning the known benefits of midwifery continuity of care models in different contexts.
