1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Given the underutilization of contraception in India, this study was undertaken to gauge cisgender female clients' knowledge of, attitudes toward, and barriers to contraceptive usage in North India. Methodology: The present study was done at a tertiary care Institute in North India, where 209 structured interviews were conducted with cisgender female patients attending the outpatient department. One-way chi-square tests for independence, Kruskal-Wallis test, and Wilcoxon test were applied to quantitative data. Themes from qualitative questions were coded and analyzed. Results: Differences in awareness among contraceptives were found to be highly statistically significant (H (9) = 1022.3, Conclusion: Our study shows differential levels of awareness, usage, and barriers on contraceptive methods among participants. Results also suggest the importance of spouses and friends in clients' contraceptive decision-making process and their limited counseling experience with health care providers.
