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

backgroundClimate change has been described as the greatest health threat of the 21st century. Increased evidence of the linkages between climate change and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) is essential to achieving full realization of SRHR.

objectiveTo understand if and how women and girls' perceived climate vulnerability impacts their SRHR decision-making, behaviors, and outcomes in cyclone-affected communities in coastal Khulna, Bangladesh, we conducted qualitative research using an intersectional climate justice lens.

designClimate justice states that the climate crisis is not just an environmental or health problem, it is equally a political and social problem, whereby different communities feel the consequences differently, unevenly, and disproportionately depending on a multitude of factors shaped by intersecting systems of power and oppression. We adopted an intersectional climate justice lens to explore how women and girls' intersecting identities impact their experiences with climate change - particularly extreme weather events - and impact their perceived vulnerability. We employed a two-phased participatory qualitative research design.

methodsWe conducted key informant interviews with local SRHR and climate change experts (

resultsParticipants perceived numerous SRHR outcomes to be worsened by the climate crisis, including unintended pregnancy, sexual and gender-based violence, and pregnancy complications. Impacts were experienced differently across social categories, with overlapping identities including age, marital status, and religion magnifying vulnerability and risks to SRHR. Participants identified comprehensive SRHR and advances toward gender equity as essential for building climate resilience.

conclusionOur findings provide actionable recommendations to support the full realization of climate justice and SRHR.
