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
backgroundHelp-seeking has been identified as one of the most potent ways of stopping gender-based violence. However, studies have shown that poor help-seeking behaviour persists among women with experience with intimate partner violence (IPV) in Nigeria. This study examines the factors influencing help-seeking behaviour among young women with IPV experience in Nigeria. Young women within the age bracket of 15-29 years were considered because they are disproportionately affected by IPV. METHODOLOGY: This study utilised the 2018 Nigerian Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) data. Data were analysed with descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and logistic regression.
resultsThe results revealed that religion [χ
conclusionThe study recommends implementing culturally sensitive and region-specific interventions to address barriers that hinder uneducated women from seeking help. These findings also suggest that policies and programs should consider sociocultural factors such as region, ethnicity, and educational level.
