Prevalence and predictors of post-abortion modern contraceptive utilization among reproductive age women in Ethiopia.

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
The development of a post-abortion family plan is an integral part of comprehensive abortion care. In spite of this, it received insufficient attention as a means of breaking the cycle of repeated abortions, unintended pregnancies, and maternal deaths resulting from abortion. Therefore, this study examined post abortion modern contraceptive utilization among Ethiopian women as well as associated factors. The study was based on secondary data analysis of the Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey 2016 data. A total weighted sample of 1236 reproductive age women was included. A multilevel mixed-effect binary logistic regression model was fitted to identify the significant associated factors of post abortion contraceptive use. Statistical significance was determined using Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) with 95% confidence interval. Overall prevalence of post abortion contraceptive use was observed to be 25.6% (95% CI: 23.24, 28.12). Women's age 15-24 (AOR = 2.34; 95% CI: 1.11, 4.93), and 25-34 (AOR = 1.94; 95% CI: 1.27, 2.98), married women (AOR = 2.6; 95% CI: 1.43, 4.96), women who had 1-4 (AOR = 4.13; 95% CI: 1.79, 9.57) and ≥ 5 number of children (AOR = 8.80; 95% CI: 3.30, 13.49), Being in metropolitan region (AOR = 9.14; 95% CI: 1.79, 12.48), women being in urban area (AOR = 1.85; 95% CI: 1.32, 2.24), and community media exposure (AOR = 1.75; 95% CI: 1.11, 3.56) were associated with post abortion modern contraceptive use. Post abortion modern contraceptive use in this study was low. Women age, current marital status, number of living children, residency, community media exposure, and region were significantly associated with post abortion modern contraceptive utilization. Therefore, it is better to provide ongoing health information about post-abortion family planning and its benefits, especially for people who live in rural and small peripheral regions, and public health policymakers should take both individual and community level factors into account when designing family planning programmes.
