Opti'care protocol: a randomised control trial to evaluate the impact of a mobile antenatal care clinic in isolated rural areas on prenatal follow-up.
Article in BMJ open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04823104 (Optimizing Access to Care During Pregnancy in Rural Areas in a Perinatal Health), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
introductionRural residence appears to be a factor of vulnerability among pregnant women with poor clinical antenatal care. Our principal objective is to assess the impact of an infrastructure for a mobile antenatal care clinic on the completion of antenatal care for women identified as geographically vulnerable in a perinatal network. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: Controlled cluster-randomised study in two parallel arms comparing an intervention group with an open-label control group. This study will concern the population of pregnant women who must live in one of the municipalities covered by the perinatal network and considered to be an area of geographic vulnerability. The cluster randomisation will take place according to the municipality of residence. The intervention will be the implementation of pregnancy monitoring by a mobile antenatal care clinic. The completion of antenatal care between the intervention and control groups will be a binary criterion: 1 will be attributed to each antenatal care that includes all visits and supplementary examinations. Sample size has been estimated to be 330 at least with an 80% participation rate.The univariate analyses will compare the follow-up rates (with Fisher's exact test), and all individual characteristics collected (Fisher's exact test, Student's t-test) between the two groups. The multivariate analysis will use a mixed linear model analysis and consider the cluster effect as random; the initial model will include known confounders from the literature, confounders identified in univariate analyses, and the clinically relevant prognostic factors. All of these factors will be taken into account in the model as a fixed effect. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The Patient Protection Committee North-West II approved this study on 4 February 2021 (IRB 2020-A02247-32). The results will be the subject of scientific communications and publications. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT04823104.
