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
Background: Effective healthcare utilization throughout pregnancy is essential in protecting mother and child health, but the maternal healthcare utilization and its associated factors among migrant women are still underexplored. Methods: The data came from the 2018 China Migrants Dynamic Survey. Our analysis included 6337 pregnant migrant women. Prenatal healthcare utilization comprises receiving at least 5 antenatal care (ANC) times and establishing the maternal health record within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Postnatal healthcare utilization refers to whether an individual received a postpartum visit and a physical health examination within 28 days and 42 days following delivery. A multivariate binary logit model was employed to investigate the factors related to maternal healthcare utilization. Results: 67.15% of the 6337 participants established health records within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, and 88.35% received at least five ANC visits. 76.88% and 84.20% of migrant pregnant women received a postpartum visit and a health examination respectively. Age was positively correlated with receiving at least five ANC visits (OR:1.245, 95% CI: 1.038-1.493), a postpartum visit within 28 days (OR: 1.272, 95% CI: 1.107-1.460) and a physical examination within 42 days after delivery (OR=1.174, 95% CI: 1.002-1.376). Education, household income, health insurance and maternal health education were positively associated with prenatal and postnatal healthcare utilization (P<0.05). Number of Children negatively correlated with ANC times (OR: 0.742, 95% CI: 0.613-0.898) and receiving health examination after delivery (OR: 0.720, 95% CI: 0.610-0.849). Conclusion: There is still potential for improvement in the maternal healthcare utilization, particularly in postnatal healthcare. Strengthening the follow-up, focusing on those who are younger, have lower socioeconomic status, and are members of ethnic minorities, and continuing to strengthen maternal health education for them can promote the maternal healthcare utilization before and after delivery.
