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
backgroundThe experience of post-abortion care (PAC) is crucial to the quality of PAC services. However, there is limited literature on women's experience with PAC, particularly the aspects of person-centered maternity care (PCMC) and satisfaction with PAC services.
objectiveTo examine the relationship between PCMC and satisfaction with PAC services.
designA facility-based analytical cross-sectional study.
methodsA survey was conducted among 370 women aged 15-49 who sought PAC services at public health facilities in Lira city, Northern Uganda. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, the Spearman correlation test, and multiple linear regression.
resultsThe mean age of study participants was 26.1 (±6.3) years. The overall PCMC median score was 21.5 (interquartile range (IQR): 11) out of 36. The median scores for the sub-scales were as follows: 6 (IQR: 6-6) for dignity and respect out of 9; 9 (IQR: 5-13) for communication and autonomy out of 18; and 8 (IQR: 6-9) for supportive care out of 9. Satisfaction with PAC services' score ranged from 6 to 42, and the median satisfaction score was 30 (IQR range: 28-32). Bivariate analysis revealed a weak but significant correlation between the overall PCMC scale and satisfaction with PAC services (
conclusionsPCMC, particularly the aspects of communication between clients and providers and the promotion of clients' autonomy, is associated with higher satisfaction with PAC services. Efforts to increase clients' satisfaction with PAC should focus on strengthening communication between clients and providers and promoting clients' autonomy during care.
