Spatial distribution and determinants of early postnatal discharge among vaginally delivered mothers in Ethiopia: spatial and multilevel analysis of Ethiopian demographic survey data.
Article in BMJ public health, 2024. 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
Background: Postnatal hospital care is aimed to detect any complications for both mother and child. Postnatal care should start as early as possible, especially during the first 24 hours. No study assessed the hotspot areas of early postnatal discharge and its community and individual level determinants in Ethiopia. Therefore this study aimed to fill the mentioned gap. Methods: This study used the Ethiopian demographic and health survey 2016. A total of 2443 delivered mothers were included in the analysis. The non-spatial analysis was conducted using Stata V.14. A mixed-effect multilevel logistic regression model was fitted. Model comparison was done using Akaike's information criterion and log-likelihood ratio. Global Moran's index, spatial autocorrelations and spatial scan statistics were conducted. Multicollinearity was checked. P values <0.25 and 0.05 were used as a cut-off point to declare statistical significance for the bivariable and multivariable regression models, respectively. Results: The early postnatal discharge was spatially clustered (Moran's index=0.077, p<0.05). Hotspots of early postnatal discharge were detected in most parts of Benishangul Gumuz, central Amhara, north east Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region (SNNPR) and western Oromiya. Being literate, no media exposure, having three to four antenatal care visits, size of child and history of abortion were statistical significant determinants of early postnatal discharge. Conclusions: Hotspot areas of early postnatal discharge were detected in parts of central Amhara region, Benishangul gumz, the northeastern parts of SNNPR and western Oromiya. Sociodemographic and reproductive related factors determine early postnatal discharge.
