Community-based newborn care utilization and associated factors in Nekemte City, Oromia, Ethiopia, 2023.
Article in BMC pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundCommunity-Based Newborn Care [CBNC] program aims to improve the health of the newborns. Despite management improvements, many young infants with serious bacterial infections [PSBI] in resource-limited settings are not receiving recommended inpatient treatment due to accessibility, affordability, or family acceptance issues. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the level of CBNC utilization and associated factors among women who delivered recently their newborns in Nekemte city, West Oromia, Ethiopia.
methodsA community-based cross-sectional study design was carried out. A two-month infants' mother interview was conducted from March 1 to April 30, 2023, using data from 556 mothers in Nekemte city. Nurses trained and working in this city collected the data. Data were collected using Kobo Toolbox software and exported to STATA Version 14 for analysis. A binary logistic regression analysis was carried out. In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, a p value of < 0.05 and adjusted OR [AOR] with a 95% CI were used to identify factors statistically associated with CBNC service utilization.
resultThe overall level of community based care utilization was 35.25% [95% CI: 33.85-44.60]. While time of first anti natal care contacts [AOR: 0.14; 95% CI: 0.08-0.25], maternal age [AOR: 3.36; 95% CI: 1.35-8.31], marital status [AOR: 0.24; 95% CI: 0.08-0.75], and estimated wealth level [AOR: 6.54; 95% CI: 2.24-19.11] were significantly associated factors with the level of community-based utilization of newborn care.
conclusionCommunity-based newborn care utilization was low from the study area in related to the previous studies and national recommendation. Therefore, creating awareness for mothers to start their antenatal contacts early or at the first trimester, giving information about community-based utilization of newborn care services to teenagers, and supporting mothers who are widowed and of medium or high income to use the community-based utilization of newborn care services.
