Trends and factors contributing to health facility delivery among adolescent women in Ethiopia: multivariate decomposition analysis.
Article in BMC women's 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
backgroundAlthough an increase in health facility delivery in Ethiopia over time, adolescent women giving birth at health facilities is still low. Health facility delivery is crucial to improving the health of women and their newborns' health by providing safe delivery services. We aimed to examine the trend change and identify factors contributing to health facility delivery in Ethiopia.
methodsWe analyzed the data on adolescent women obtained from three Ethiopian Demographic and Health Surveys. A total of weighted samples were 575 in 2005, 492 in 2011, and 378 in 2016. Data management and further statistical analysis were done using STATA 14. Trends and multivariate decomposition analysis were used to examine the trends in health facility delivery over time and the factors contributing to the change in health facility delivery.
resultsThis study showed that the prevalence of health facility delivery among adolescent women in Ethiopia increased significantly from 4.6% (95% CI 3.2-6.7) in 2005 to 38.7% (95% CI 33.9-43.7) in 2016. Decomposition analysis revealed that around 78.4% of the total change in health facility delivery over time was due to the changes in the composition of adolescent women and approximately 21.6% was due to the changes in their behavior. In this study, maternal age, place of residency, wealth index, maternal education, frequency of ANC visits, number of living children, and region were significant factors contributing to an increase in health facility delivery over the study periods.
conclusionThe prevalence of health facility delivery for adolescent women in Ethiopia has increased significantly over time. Approximately 78.4% increase in health facility delivery was due to adolescent women's compositional changes. Public health interventions targeting rural residents and uneducated women would help to increase the prevalence of health facility delivery.
