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
The study objective was to describe trends in partner-accompanied birth between January 2019 and August 2021 and examine the associations of partner-accompanied birth with women's psychological distress and partners' housework and parenting. A total of 5605 women who had a live singleton birth between January 2019 and August 2021 and had a partner participated in this nationwide internet-based survey between July and August 2021 in Japan. The percentages of women's intentions and actual experience of partner-accompanied births were calculated per month. Associations of partner-accompanied birth with scores on the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6) ≥10, partners' participation in housework and parenting, and factors associated with having a partner-accompanied birth were examined using a multivariable Poisson regression model. The proportion of women who had partner-accompanied births was 65.7% between January 2019 and March 2020, dropping to 32.1% between April 2020 and August 2021. Partner-accompanied birth was not associated with a K6 score ≥10, but was significantly associated with the partner's daily housework and parenting (adjusted prevalence ratio 1.08, 95% CI 1.02-1.14). Partner-accompanied births have been substantially restricted since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. The right to a birth partner should be protected, while addressing infection control.
