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

backgroundThe Safe Childbirth Checklist (SCC) was designed in an effort to support health workers to perform essential tasks and improve the quality of care (QoC) for mothers and babies during childbirth. Given the fact that human experiences in any society can be influenced by cultural, economic, and social differences. Therefore, the present qualitative study aimed to investigate mothers' perceptions and experiences of natural childbirth and QoC in childbirth management based on SCC. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe current study is a qualitative study that was conducted in 2022-2023 by targeted sampling on women who gave birth based on SCC in two hospitals in Ahvaz. Eighteen women participated in the interview sessions 1 month after giving birth. The conventional content analysis method was used to analyze the data.

resultsOverall, 870 codes were extracted from the interviews. The interviewed mothers' satisfaction with the use of SCC was organized into seven main themes, namely "Satisfaction with the comprehensive support of the companion," "Satisfaction with the comprehensive support of the midwife," "Satisfaction with the emotional support of the husband," "Satisfaction with the mutual interaction between the midwife and the parturient mother," " Preparation for the challenges of different stages of childbirth and postpartum through training," " Satisfaction with the pain management strategies adopted by the companion," "Satisfaction with skin-to-skin contact and early breastfeeding" and " Satisfaction with the strengthened relationship between the couples and acceptance of the father's role after the husband's meeting with the parturient mother."

conclusionImplementation of SCC by providing evidence-based practice and midwifery standards to mothers and neonates can help improve women's experiences of the birth process. By reminding midwives to encourage women to have a companion during childbirth and by giving the necessary training to them about danger signs in every stage of childbirth from admission to discharge, this checklist can not only lead to positive birth experiences but also improve the interaction of mothers with midwives. Therefore, it is recommended that this checklist be used in maternity wards.
