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
Background: Urinary tract infection is the single most common bacterial infection of mankind. Objective: To assess the risk factors and prevalence of Urinary tract infection among pregnant women attending antenatal care at Wachemo University Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Central Ethiopia, 2023. Methods: An institutional-based cross-sectional study design was conducted from 2 October to 29 December 2023. The total sample size was 405 and a systematic random sampling technique was used. Data were entered using the Epi-data 3.1 version and exported to SPSS 25 for analysis. Multicollinearity was checked. The goodness of fit test was done using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test. Binary logistic regression analysis was done, and variables with a Result: The prevalence of urinary tract infection was 40.7% with 95%CI [36.5-45.2]. Rural resident [AOR: 2.32, 95% CI: 1.36-3.96], educational status of husband no formal education [AOR: 3.38, 95% CI: 1.24-9.21], educational status of husband primary level [AOR: 2.94, 95% CI: 1.06-8.18], having vaginal bleeding [AOR: 3.89, 95%CI: 1.78-8.47], having female genital mutation [AOR: 2.98, 95%CI: 1.83-4.84], itchiness around genitalia [AOR: 3.82, 95%CI: 1.14-12.82], and using water for cleaning after defecation [AOR: 0.46, 95%CI: 0.22-0.97] were significantly associated. Conclusion: Four in ten pregnant women attending antenatal care had urinary tract infections. Residence, educational status of the husband, vaginal bleeding, female genital mutation, itchiness around genitalia, and mode of cleaning after defecation were significantly associated. Therefore, creating awareness for rural women, improving the educational status of husbands`, treatment of vaginal bleeding, avoiding female genital mutation, screening and treating itchiness around genitalia, and using water for cleaning after defecation might reduce the burden.
