Prenatal care adequacy of migrants born in conflict-affected countries and country-born parturients in Finland.
Article in Journal of migration and health, 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
Background: The 2015 refugee crisis led into a forced migration of millions of people globally. As a consequence, many countries experienced a quick change in the proportion of conflict-area born migrants. This group being stated as an especially vulnerable group for suboptimal maternal health, a timely inspection of preventive maternity care was required. This study investigated prenatal care in terms of gestation trimester at the first prenatal visit, number of check-ups prior to birth, and prepartum hospitalization in conflict-country born migrants and Finnish parturients in Finland. Material and methods: Cross-sectional study included all pregnancies of migrants born in conflict-affected countries ( Results: Migrant parturients had a higher probability for delayed enter in prenatal care compared with Finnish-born parturients (adjusted odds ratio aOR = 3.46; 95% Confidence Interval CI 3.06, 3.91). Recommended minimum number of check-ups was participated by 95.3% of the migrant, and 96.4% of the Finnish-born group ( Conclusions: Migrant parturients had significantly smaller number of check-ups and later entry in care compared with the country-born parturients. These findings add to earlier reported challenges in the organizing of conflict-affected country born migrants' prenatal care in a high-income setting, in which the proportion of conflict-area born migrants has risen rapidly and unexpectedly.
