Humanized childbirth in Colombia: Prevalence and associated factors.
Article in PloS one, 2025. 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
In several parts of the world, women are subjected to disrespectful and offensive treatment during childbirth. Humanized obstetrics or humanized childbirth has emerged as a response to this situation, and it refers to a model of comprehensive care for labor and childbirth that focuses on the respect and dignity of the woman. This study was aimed at estimating the prevalence and factors associated with humanized childbirth, as perceived by women in six major cities in Colombia. An analytical, multicenter, representative cross-sectional study was conducted in a random sample of six Colombian cities, including the country's capital. We included 1294 women who were over 14 years of age and who had an institution-assisted vaginal childbirth resulting in a live birth in 2018. The prevalence of humanized childbirth in the sample of participating cities was 32.9% (95% confidence interval, 30.4-35.5). The city of residence of the pregnant woman, the presence of health problems during pregnancy, attendance at an antenatal course, the sex of the attending professional, and the association between the involvement of an obstetrician-gynecologist and the occurrence of a humanized childbirth were examined. These results indicate the need to monitor compliance with existing regulations to ensure dignified, respectful, and humane care that prioritizes women.
