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
Aim: This study evaluated "Team-Mamas," a continuity of midwifery care intervention that used a respectful maternity care framework during the antenatal, labor, and postpartum periods. The research aimed to assess the impact of intervention on birth outcomes, birth satisfaction, birth experience, and maternal function. Participants and setting: This study employed a non-equivalent control group post-test design. The midwife companion program offered services including natural childbirth education, prenatal healthcare, birth rehearsal, childbirth support, infant care, and postpartum education and counseling. This program provided continuous support by midwives from the 28th week of gestation until 14 days after birth. There were 65 participants from 3 cities in Korea from March to November, 2023. Results: The intervention led to lower frequencies of episiotomy ( Conclusion: Mothers experienced satisfactory and safe birth outcomes when supported by a continuity of midwifery care intervention. We suggest promoting positive birth outcomes and experiences through integrated support that honors the dignity of mothers throughout pregnancy, labor, birth, and the postpartum period.
