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

backgroundUnmet need for family planning remains a significant public health problem, particularly womens working in industrial sectors faces unique reproductive health challenges. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated factors of unmet need among reproductive age women working in Bole lemi industrial park.

methodsAn institution based cross sectional study was conducted among randomly selected 339 reproductive age women. Data was collected using a face-to-face interview using pretested structured questionnaire. The data was entered into EpiData version 3.1, and analyzed in StataSE 14. Descriptive analyses were performed for all variables. Furthermore, by using Bivariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis variables with AOR at 95% confidence interval and p-value of < 0.05 were considered as significant variables.

resultsIn this study the prevalence of unmet need for family planning is 27.4% 95% CI (22.57- 32.23), with 19.6% for spacing and 8.2% for limiting. Educational status (AOR = 0.16, 95%CI: 0.034- 0.82), knowledge on family planning (AOR = 3.3 95%CI: 1.30 - 8.67), marriage status (AOR = 4.25 95%CI: 1.62 - 11.15) and partner support (AOR = 0.28 95%CI: 0.11 - 0.74) were found to be significantly associated with unmet need.

conclusionUnmet need for family planning is notably high among women working at the Bole-Lemi Industrial Park. Public and private sectors should collaborate to Strengthen reproductive health education programs to improve awareness of family planning, promote male involvement and partner support.
