Individual and community-level determinants of skilled birth attendant delivery in Ethiopia; multilevel analysis.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
introductionSkilled birth attendant (SBA) delivery is defined as assisting birth by a trained healthcare provider, which is vital for the health of mothers and newborns. Improving maternal health is one of the world health organization's (WHO) key priorities and skilled birth attendant delivery is one of the four pillars of the initiative for safe motherhood to reduce maternal mortality. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the individual and community-level factors associated with SBA delivery in Ethiopia.
methodA secondary data analysis was conducted using the 2019 Mini Ethiopian demographic and health survey. A total of 5,527 (weighted) live births were included in the analysis. A multi-level logistic regression model was fitted using Stata 14.0 to identify individual and community-level factors associated with SBA delivery. Finally, AOR with 95% CI and random effects were reported.
resultIn this study after fitting a multilevel model, women with poor (AOR = 0.44 95%CI 0.32-0.61) and middle wealth index (AOR = 0.64;95% CI 0.46-0.87), multipara (AOR = 0.39;95% CI 0.28-0.55) and grand multipara (AOR = 0.46;95% CI 0.29-0.72), women from rural areas (AOR = 0.34;95% CI 0.16-0.72) and high community poverty level (AOR = 0.40;95% CI 0.21-0.76) had decreased odds of having SBA delivery. Whereas those who initiated Antenatal care (ANC) visits in the first trimester (AOR = 2.65; 95% CI 1.52-4.65) and second trimester (AOR = 1.87:95%CI 1.09-3.20) had increased odds of having SBA delivery in Ethiopia.
conclusionIn this study socioeconomic factors like wealth index, parity, the timing of ANC visits, place of residency, and community poverty level were significantly associated with SBA delivery. Therefore, it is better to increase timely ANC initiation particularly for women with low levels of income to improve skilled birth attendant delivery.
