Proximate Predictors of Vaginal Delivery in Primigravid women at a Tertiary Health Facility in Ibadan, Nigeria.
Article in Rwanda journal of medicine and health sciences, 2021. 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
Background: Successful vaginal delivery (VD) is the desire of every parturient. This is however not always so especially for primigravid women. Predictive factors can help the counselling process and allay the anxiety that this group of parturients experience. Objective: To determine the prevalence and predictors of vaginal delivery among primigravid women at a tertiary health facility. Methods: This was a 6-month cross-sectional study of 200 primigravid women that were planned for vaginal delivery. Information was obtained using structured proforma. Bivariate and multivariable analysis was used to identify the proximate predictors of VD. Results: The prevalence of vaginal delivery was 50.0%. Labour onset was spontaneous in 78.0%; 10.0% had engaged fetal head prior to labour onset while labour was augmented in 18.0% of the parturients. Labour lasted ≤12 hours in majority (67.5%) with about half (49.5%) having successful vaginal delivery. Factors predicting successful vaginal delivery were spontaneous labour onset (OR=3.555, 95% CI=1.626-7.774), booked pregnancy (OR=3.008, 95%CI=1.361-6.647), and early fetal head engagement (OR=6.484, 95% CI=1.686-24.943). Conclusion: The identified predictive factors of vaginal delivery in this study will aid counselling of primigravid women regarding the likelihood of successful vaginal delivery especially in the absence of other obstetric complications.
