Experience of pregnant women living in temporary shelters post-earthquake: a phenomenological study.
Article in BMC pregnancy and childbirth, 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
backgroundContinuing health services after disasters and ensuring that pregnant women receive antenatal care are important to protect the health of mothers and babies.This study aims to investigates the experiences of pregnant women living in temporary shelters cities post-earthquake.
methodA qualitative approach was employed to explore pregnant women experiences during the earthquake, that hit the Pazarcık district of central Kahramanmaraş, Turkey, on February 6, 2023. Sixteen pregnant women participated to study who met the inclusion criteria. Data were collected using a semi-structured interview form and analyzed using MAXQDA qualitative software, following Colaizzi’s seven-stage method.
resultsThe age range of the pregnant women was 18–36. In line with the data obtained from interviews with these women, four main themes were identified: difficulties in meeting basic life needs (sub-themes of heating, clothing, food/nutrition, drinking water/sanitation/hygiene, and economic needs); difficulties in maintaining pregnancy and protecting health (sub-themes of changes in fetal movements, labor/bleeding, vomiting/weakness, and infection); (1) difficulty receiving antenatal care (sub-themes: inability to have antenatal follow-ups or tests, inability to listen to fetal heart sounds, lack of an ideal birth environment, fear of preterm birth, and lack of weight monitoring); (2) emotional difficulty (sub-themes: fear of preterm birth or not finding an ideal birth environment, crying, helplessness, stress, and shock/panic).
conclusionDuring emergencies and disasters, it is crucial to provide necessary pregnancy monitoring, information, and psychosocial support by experienced healthcare professionals.
