1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundGlobally 1 in 7 women aren't using family planning as a result, larger numbers of women get pregnant within 7-9 months of childbirth. The aim of this study was to estimate the time to initiate postpartum modern contraceptive use and predictors among women of reproductive age group within the first 12 months of delivery in Della Town, Southern, Ethiopia.

methodsA retrospective cohort study from March 25, 2019, to March 25, 2020, was conducted in Dilla town. A Systematic sampling technique was used to select 594 study participants. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to determine factors associated with time to initiate postpartum modern contraceptive use at 95% CI with a P-value of < 0.05.

resultsA total of 576 postpartum women were participated making a response rate of 96.9%. The median time to initiate postpartum modern contraceptive use was 7 months (IQR: 6, 8). Education [AHR = 3.01 (95% CI = 1.32, 6.83)], knowledge on family planning [AHR = 1.56(95% CI = 1.20, 2.02)], and family planning counseling during postnatal care [AHR = 2.22 (95% CI = 1.46, 3.38)] were predictors positively associated with time to initiate postpartum modern contraceptive.

conclusionsThe time to initiate postpartum modern contraceptive use was delayed longer than compared to the World Health Organization recommendation. Education level of women, knowledge of family planning, and family planning counseling during postnatal care were some predictors positively associated with time to initiate postpartum modern contraceptive use.
