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

Aim: The aim of the study is to investigate the relationships between social determinants and disability status and access and use of sexual and reproductive health services among women with disabilities in Nepal. Materials ad methods: This study used data on women with disability from the Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) of 2019, in which 13,320 women and 290 women with disabilities were included for the analysis. We used bivariate analysis to compare the social determinants with disability status and multivariate logistic regression to determine the association between social determinants and access and use of sexual and reproductive health services among women with disabilities. Findings: The findings showed, in comparison with non-disabled women, women with disabilities had low education, low economic status, low media exposure and low access to sexual and reproductive health. On provincial level, those from Madesh [AOR = 0.22 (95%CI:0.06, 0.76)] and Lumbini [AOR = 0.24 (95%CI:0.06,0.88)] had lower attitude to violence. The usage of family planning (FP) methods among women with disabilities in Karnali [AOR = 3.57 (95% CI: 1.42-13.22)] and Sudurpashchim [AOR = 1.05 (95% CI: 1.01-1.071)] was higher than those in Province 1. Women with disabilities with secondary education were more than nine times [AOR = 9.28(95%CI:2.67,32,26)] and primary education had more than three times [AOR = 3.59 (95%CI:1.07, 12.02)] of knowledge on HIV/AIDS compared to those of no education. The odds of being tested for HIV/AIDS among women with disabilities with secondary education was more than eight times [AOR = 8.8 (95% CI:2.23-34.6)] than those of no education. Conclusion: This study provides noteworthy findings that women with disabilities have poor socioeconomic status, high-risk behavior, and low access to sexual and reproductive health services in Nepal. This study highlights the significance of actions needed to address sexual and reproductive health services in Nepal that unfairly impact women with disabilities.
