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

Canada has been unique in the modern era for limiting midwives from providing sexual health and perinatal care to families. Prohibitions on midwifery practice were finally lifted in Prince Edward Island in 2024, yet midwives' scope of practice continues to be restricted in most jurisdictions. The Canadian Midwifery Regulators Council recently recommended midwives should be able to practice their full scope. Our midwifery pilot project, located in the city of Victoria, British Columbia, implemented this recommendation in 2023-2024. Below we demonstrate the benefits of integrating midwifery into a primary healthcare clinic and the continued challenges midwives and their teams face in securing salaried employment long-term. We focus on the specialized cultural and clinical skillset that Indigenous registered midwives in particular bring to primary care, and the life-saving outcomes that can occur for youth clients if interprofessional collaboration and cooperation are well-established.
