Prevalence and risk factors for delayed antenatal care visits in Rwanda: an analysis of secondary data from Rwanda demographic health survey 2019-2020.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: antenatal care (ANC) delivers services to prevent pregnancy complications and provides counseling for birth, and emergency preparedness. Having ANC on time has life-saving potential for the child and mother. Despite improvements in health infrastructure, human resources, and health insurance, hindrances to early ANC visits still exist in Rwanda. This study aimed to investigate the burden and factors associated with delayed ANC visits in Rwanda so that policymakers can develop strategies to promote early ANC visits. Methods: this is a cross-sectional study using Rwanda demographic health survey (RDHS) 2019-2020 that included 6,039 women that had had a pregnancy in the 5 years preceding the survey. Descriptive analysis was used to determine the prevalence and a multivariable logistic regression model using manual backward stepwise regression was used to identify risk factors for delayed ANC in Rwanda. STATA 16 statistical software was used for all the analyses. Results: the prevalence of delayed ANC in Rwanda was 41% and the risk factors include: the number of children 4-6 (AOR = 1.4, 95% CI: 1.2-1.6) and 7 or more children (AOR = 1.5, 95% CI: 1.5-2.1) versus less than 3 children, unwanted pregnancy (AOR = 1.7, 95% CI: 1.5-2.0), not covered by health insurance (AOR = 14, 95% CI: 1.2-1.6), woman´s education level: no education (AOR 2.6, 95% CI: 1.6-4.1), primary education (AOR 2.5, 95% CI: 1.6-3.7), secondary education (AOR 2.2, 95% CI: 1.5-3.2), woman´s occupation: informal (AOR 2.3 95% CI: 1.5-3.7) and unemployment (AOR 2.3. 95% CI: 1.4-3.7).
