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
backgroundBirth preparedness and complication readiness is a preparation strategy for normal birth and potential emergency situations, and is important for the safety and health of mothers and newborns during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period.
objectiveThis study aimed to assess the prevalence of birth preparedness and complication readiness and the associated factors among pregnant women. STUDY
designThis was a community-based, cross-sectional study conducted among randomly selected 480 pregnant women from February to April of 2020. Bivariable logistic regression was performed to assess the association of each independent variable with the dependent variable. All variables with a
resultsOut of the 498 sampled pregnant women, 480 (96.4%) agreed to participate in the study; 104 were found to have satisfactory birth preparedness and complication readiness (21.7%; 95% confidence interval, 18.3-25.7). Having had an experience of obstetrical complications (adjusted odds ratio, 1.83; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-3.14), early starting time for antenatal care visits (adjusted odds ratio, 5.22; 95% confidence interval, 2.26-12.06), advice about birth preparedness (adjusted odds ratio, 2.99; 95% confidence interval, 1.21-7.39), and awareness about obstetrical danger signs during childbirth and the postpartum period (adjusted odds ratio, 2.23; 95% confidence interval, 1.33-3.74) were found to be significantly associated with birth preparedness and complication readiness.
conclusionThe prevalence of birth preparedness and complication readiness was low. Experience of obstetrical complications, starting time for antenatal care visits, advice about birth preparedness and complication readiness, and awareness of key danger signs during childbirth and the postpartum period were significantly associated with birth preparedness and complication readiness.
