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

Background and Objective: An important indicator of the quality of antenatal care (ANC) is the satisfaction of the client. Despite this, women in Ethiopia are very dissatisfied with the quality of their ANC. In Ethiopia, a systematic review was conducted to estimate the pooled prevalence of client satisfaction (CS) with ANC services. Methods: Only articles published in English were included in this review. Medline/PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scopus, Ethiopian University Repository Online, and the Cochrane Library are the main databases. The review included cross-sectional studies written in English that met the inclusion requirements. Using a random effects model, the overall rate of CS with prenatal care was calculated. Additionally, Egger's test and funnel plots were used to examine publication bias. STATA version 14 was used to perform all statistical analyses. Results: This review included 20 studies involving 8447 women attending prenatal care services. In Ethiopia, the overall customer satisfaction rate with prenatal care services was 60.42% (95% CI [51.33.99, 69.51]; I2 = 98.9%, P < 0.001). Previous ANC follow-up, iron and folic acid supplementation, and the last planned pregnancy were statistically associated with CS. Conclusion and Global Health Implications: In Ethiopia, 60% of women are satisfied with their ANC. This shows that 40% of women are dissatisfied with the prenatal care provided by healthcare professionals. This will lead to a low utilization of ANC services throughout the country. Therefore, the Ethiopian government, especially the Ministry of Health and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), must take measures to address this severity and improve identified factors.
