Association between location of prenatal care services and non-consented cesarean sections in Mexico: A secondary analysis of the National Survey on the Dynamics of Household Relationships 2016.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundMexico has one of the world's highest rates of cesarean section (C-section). Little is known about Mexico's frequency of and risk factors for non-consented C-sections, a form of obstetric violence. We examined the prevalence of sociodemographic and obstetric-specific characteristics of Mexican women who delivered via C-section, as well as the association between the location of prenatal care services and experiencing a non-consented C-section.
methodsWe conducted a secondary analysis of data collected from Mexico's 2016 National Survey on the Dynamics of Household Relationships (ENDIREH 2016) of women who reported a C-section during their latest delivery. Adjusted logistic regressions were calculated to explore the associations between the location of prenatal care services and experiencing a non-consented cesarean delivery, stratifying by Indigenous belonging.
resultsThe sample size for this analysis was 10,256 ENDIREH respondents, with 9.1% not consenting to a C-section. ENDIREH respondents between the ages of 26 and 35 years old, living in urban settings, living in Central or Southern Mexico, and married or living with a partner experienced a higher prevalence of non-consented C-sections. For both women who identified as Indigenous and those who did not, the odds of experiencing a non-consented C-section were higher when receiving prenatal services in private settings. Receiving more than one type of prenatal service was also associated with increased odds of non-consented C-sections, while ENDIREH 2016 respondents who did not identify as Indigenous and received prenatal care at the State Institute for Social Security and Services for State Workers facility had lower odds of experiencing a non-consented C-section.
conclusionsThis analysis indicates that receiving prenatal care at a private facility or a combination of public and private services increases the risk of experiencing a non-consented C-section in Mexico. Additional research is required to further understand the factors associated with non-consented C-sections in Mexico.
