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

backgrounda maternal near miss experience can lead to clinical and psychosocial consequences for the woman and her family.

objectivesTo synthesize qualitative studies on the perception of women survivors of maternal near miss episodes and their trust in maternal health services.

methodsa qualitative systematic review was performed in five electronic databases using the Guidelines for Enhancing Transparency in Reporting the Synthesis of Qualitative Research. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed using the Critical Appraisal Skills Program. This review contains the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews.

resultsa total of 18 studies were chosen based on the eligibility criteria. Three themes emerged from the studies: Factors associated with delays in seeking health care Repercussions of maternal near miss; and Structural and organizational factors of the health care network. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: There is a need to create strategies directed not only to improve the quality of care during pregnancy and childbirth, but also to support families after hospital discharge. The development and implementation of support programs for survivors of maternal near miss is recommended, including follow-up visits and psychological support for mothers and families.
