"Safer Births Bundle of Care" Implementation and Perinatal Impact at 30 Hospitals in Tanzania-Halfway Evaluation.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Safer Births Bundle of Care (SBBC) consists of innovative clinical and training tools for improved labour care and newborn resuscitation, integrated with new strategies for continuous quality improvement. After implementation, we hypothesised a reduction in 24-h newborn deaths, fresh stillbirths, and maternal deaths by 50%, 20%, and 10%, respectively. This is a 3-year stepped-wedged cluster randomised implementation study, including 30 facilities within five regions in Tanzania. Data collectors at each facility enter labour and newborn care indicators, patient characteristics and outcomes. This halfway evaluation reports data from March 2021 through July 2022. In total, 138,357 deliveries were recorded; 67,690 pre- and 70,667 post-implementations of SBBC. There were steady trends of increased 24-h newborn and maternal survival in four regions after SBBC initiation. In the first region, with 13 months of implementation (
