1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo evaluate female permanent contraception procedure rates in the Military Health System before and after the

methodsWe performed a repeated monthly cross-sectional study of female permanent contraception encounters using the Military Health System data repository. We used International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification diagnosis and procedure codes and Current Procedural Terminology codes to identify incident encounters in beneficiaries aged 21-49 years from January 2018 to February 2023. We performed change-point and trend analyses and Poisson regression to evaluate differences by age, marital status, active-duty status, military rank, service branch, and state abortion restriction level (protective, moderate, and restrictive), and we performed a subanalysis of race and ethnicity in active duty.

resultsMonthly encounter rates averaged 64 per 100,000 and peaked at 78 per 100,000 in August 2022, 2 months after

conclusionFemale permanent contraception encounter rates spiked in the Military Health System after
