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
Introduction: Although Indonesia has made significant progress in improving maternal and child health nationally, regional disparities persist, particularly in eastern Indonesia, where maternal and neonatal health outcomes remain suboptimal compared with the western regions. This study examined factors associated with non-use of antenatal care (ANC) in eastern Indonesia. Methods: We analyzed data from 3,261 mothers with infants under one year of age in eastern Indonesia who were interviewed in the 2023 Indonesia Health Survey. The primary outcome was maternal non-use at ANC during pregnancy with an infant younger than 12 months at the time of the survey. Eighteen potential predictors of non-use of ANC were assessed using a multilevel analysis. Results: Approximately 5% (95% CI: 4.14-6.09) of the mothers with infants 0-11 months did not seek antenatal care. Non-use was associated with infant age, region, socioeconomic status, health checks, knowledge of stunting, and pregnancy-related complications. Mothers with infants aged 6-11 months were 63% less likely to forgo ANC [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 0.63, Conclusions: Socioeconomic and geographic disparities drive non-use of antenatal care in eastern Indonesia. Improving healthcare access, education, and early screening are crucial for reducing regional inequalities and enhancing maternal health.
