Anaemia among Third-trimester Pregnant Women in a Community Hospital: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study.
Article in JNMA; journal of the Nepal Medical Association, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Anaemia has haemoglobin levels of less than 11/100 ml in the first and third trimesters and less than 10/100 ml in the second. Maternal anaemia is a global health issue that has a negative impact on neonatal outcomes. The prevalence is more common in developing nations like Nepal. Positive correlations have been found between third-trimester maternal haemoglobin and neonatal birth weight. Our study aimed to find out the prevalence of anaemia among third-trimester of pregnant women in a community hospital. Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in the outpatient Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology from September 2020 to September 2021. Ethical approval was taken from the Nepal health research council (Registration number: 577/2020P). The haemoglobin level of 375 participants was recorded. Data were analyzed using Statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 22. Convenience sampling was used. Point estimate and 95% Confidence Interval were calculated. Results: Out of a total of 375 pregnant females in the third trimester, 31 (8.27%) (5.48-11.06, 95% Confidence Interval) were anaemia. Conclusions: The prevalence of anaemia was lower as compared to other studies done in similar settings. Keywords: anemia; maternal-child health services; prevalence.
