In one paragraph

Observational study in Contraception, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04678817 (A Prospective Observational Study of Preference for and Efficacy of Oral Levonorgestrel Emergency Contraception With Same Day Etonogestrel Contraceptive Implant Compared to Established Pregnancy Rates With Oral Levonorgestrel Emergency Contraception Alone), which is not on this map.

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.

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.

Abstract

objectivesTo describe long acting reversible contraception (LARC) initiation in emergency contraception (EC) visits. STUDY

designEC clients age 18-35 years at four Utah family planning clinics between February 2021 and April 2023 chose between oral EC and three LARC options.

resultsOf 2106 EC clients approached, 306 (14.5%) requested LARC and 293 initiated a device: 160 (55%) an etonogestrel implant+ oral levonorgestrel (LNG), 72 (25%) a copper intrauterine device (IUD), and 61 (21%) a 52 mg levonorgestrel IUD (p < 0.001).

conclusionsIn this observational study, one in seven EC clients initiated a LARC method and more frequently selected the etonogestrel implant with oral levonorgestrel over an IUD. CLINICAL
