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: Institutional delivery is a proxy for skilled birth attendance, which is an important intervention to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality. Even though institutional delivery has such importance, significant numbers of women in Ethiopia do not prefer to give birth in health institutions. This study aimed to assess women's intention to give birth in health institutions and associated factors among women who gave birth in the last 6 months in Debre Berhan town, North Showa Zone, Ethiopia, 2020. Materials and methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among women who gave birth in the last 6 months in Debre Berhan town from October 30 to November 30, 2020. A cluster sampling technique was used to select study participants. Pretested semi-structured interviewer-administered questionnaires were administered. A logistic regression model was performed, and adjusted odds ratios with a 95% confidence interval based on Result: This study found that a total of 689 (88.8%) (95% CI: 86.6, 91%) respondents intended to deliver in the health facility. Being multiparous [AOR = 0.18 (95% CI: 0.08, 0.36)], having planned pregnancy [AOR = 3.1 (95% CI: 1.6, 5.9)], had no complications during previous delivery (AOR = 6.0 (95% CI: 3.5, 10.4)], and received respectful maternity care (RMC) during preceding delivery [AOD = 1.8 (95% CI: 1.05, 3.10)] are significantly associated with women's intention to give birth in the health institution. Conclusion: Childbirth is a special event that requires the safest place to save the lives of both the mother and newborn. In this study, the number of women who do not have the intention to give birth in the health institution is still high. Strategies to promote planned pregnancy, reduce complications during childbirth and provide RMC during childbirth should be designed and interventions should be implemented for all childbearing women.
