Value in maternal care: Using the Learning Health System to facilitate action.
Article in Birth (Berkeley, Calif.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
There is an increasing need to deliver high-value health care. Here, we discuss how value should be measured and implemented in maternity care through a Learning Health System. High-value maternity care will produce the highest level of benefit for women at a given cost. As pregnancy is not an illness state, and there is no cure or remission to be achieved, we believe that patient-reported outcomes should be an integral component of benefit quantification when measuring value. Furthermore, as care impacts more than just health outcomes-particularly in maternity care-there is also a need to consider patient-reported experiences as a part of defining the level of benefit. However, to move beyond traditional narrow and passive measurement of value, we need to partner with stakeholders to identify priorities for change, identify evidence for how to achieve this change, integrate measurement activities, and promote effective implementation, in a continuous, learning cycle-a Learning Health System. A robust Framework for implementing a Learning Health System has been developed, which could be applied in maternity care.
