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 World Health Organization recommends the use of effective contraception for the prevention of unintended pregnancy and unsafe abortion. The main aim of postabortion contraceptive services is to prevent recurrent pregnancy and ultimately mitigate the associated maternal mortality. Objective: To assess postabortion contraceptive utilization (PACU) and postabortion contraceptive preferences (PACP) and the associated factors among women receiving abortion care services in Ambo town, Oromia Region, Western Ethiopia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the health facilities in Ambo town from 22 July to 24 September 2021. The data was collected using a structured questionnaire. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression was done to determine the factors associated with postabortion contraceptive utilization and preferences. Results: Out of 388 participants who were included in the final analysis, 262 (67.5%) had utilized postabortion contraceptives of which 173 (66%) received contraceptive methods of their primary preference. The multivariate logistic regression showed that cohabiting couples showed lower utilization (AOR = 0.15; 95% CI: 0.06-0.21;
