Prevalence and determinants of repeat induced abortion in Ethiopia: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Repeat-induced abortion is the termination of pregnancy for more than one time using drugs or surgical intervention before the fetus reaches the age of viability. This study aimed to estimate the pooled prevalence of repeat-induced abortion and its determinants among women in Ethiopia. Materials and methods: PubMed, HINARI and Google Scholar were systematically searched for eligible studies. A random effect model was used to estimate the pooled prevalence. The Cochrane Q-statistics and I Results: The estimated pooled prevalence of repeat-induced abortion was 30.89% (95% CI: 28.88-32.91). Alcohol consumption (POR = 3.60, 95%CI: 2.26-5.74), assuming the procedure painless (POR = 2.79, 95%CI: 1.77-4.39), no fertility awareness (POR = 3.45, 95% CI: 1.05-11.36), and women with multiple sexual partners (POR = 4.31, 95% CI: 3.36-5.53) were significantly associated with repeat-induced abortion. Conclusion: The study revealed that about one in ten women who had a history of abortion experienced repeat-induced abortion. Alcohol consumption, no fertility awareness, assuming the procedure is painless, and having multiple sexual partners were significantly associated with repeat-induced abortion.
